It is imperative to follow the aftercare instructions to ensure the best result for your tattoo.
Leave the tattoo wrapped for 1-2 hours / 5 days if second skin has been applied.
Wash lightly with warm soapy water and pat dry.
Apply the recommended aftercare cream at least 4-5 times a day until healed. (Up to 14 days)
Repeat steps 1 & 2 daily until the tattoo has fully healed.
