FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS FOR BEST RESULTS!
DO NOT submerge your new tattoo in water. Showers are fine…just be careful. But hot tubs, pools, and excessive amounts of sweating are discouraged for two weeks. This can cause serious damage to your tattoo
Keep it out of the sun for at least two weeks!
Stay away from heavy activity and exercising until fully healed
Keep your tattoos clean, don’t touch with dirty hands or allow pets to touch them
DO NOT pick or scratch!!!! I know it’s itchy, apply a tiny amount of moisturizer if it’s unbearable, but do not overdo it to where you’re rubbing off scabs
PLEASE NO AQUAPHOR/VASOLINE OR ANY FRAGRANT MOISTURIZERS
SECOND SKIN
Leave the bandage on for 2-3 days. Please keep in mind that blood and plasma is completely normal!
If you see any excessive sweat, water or debris get underneath your bandage, or have any major tears in it, simply remove it like this:
In the shower under lukewarm water, pull the bandage down and away from your skin SLOWLY!
Do not drown your tattoo under the water when removing the saniderm, the water is supposed to help loosen the adhesive
GENTLY clean it with a liquid, fragrance-free, antibacterial soap. I highly recommend dial gold soap
Once out of the shower, PAT it dry with a clean paper towel. DO NOT rub it or use a cloth towel
Let your tattoo dry out for 1-2 hours
Put a VERY SMALL amount of unscented lotion on your tattoo with clean hands. I recommend lubriderm or cetaphil
Clean it twice a day for a week, then to once a day for a few days
Moisturize it once or twice a day for the whole two week period
TEMPORARY BANDAGE
Only keep your wrap on for 2-3 hours
When removing it, wash it gently with clean hands under lukewarm water with unscented liquid soap, I recommend gold dial soap
After washing it, PAT it dry with a clean paper towel. DO NOT rub or use a cloth towel
Let your tattoo dry out for 1-2 hours
Put a VERY SMALL amount of unscented lotion on your tattoo with clean hands. I recommend lubriderm or cetaphil
Clean it twice a day for a week, then to once a day for a few days
Moisturize it once or twice a day for the whole two week period
