Tattoo prep and after care
« on: September 26, 2010, 06:15:01 PM »
1: Remove the bandage after 1 hour. Do not rebandage.

2: Wash your tattoo by hand with cool water and a mild anti-bacterial soap: Pat dry with a soft towel, allow to air dry for 1 hour.

3: Apply a thin coat of Bacitracin ointment or Vitamin A&D ointment.
(If any discomfort occurs, discontinue use ) = just be a bad ass and don't put nothing on it like a true soldier.. lol nah just joking.

4: Use Bacitracin or Vitamin A&D or Cream made exactly for tatts for 48-72 hours ( like 3 days ) through out the day and night.

5: Thereafter use Vitamin E Lotion or Lubriderm lotion on your tatts until they heal (Use lotion, day and night ) to help from drying out and scabbing.

6: Minor scabbing may occur, DO NOT PICK AT OR ICH THE SCABS... !!!

7: Your tattoo should heal in 8 to 10 days.

8: Avoid a lot of direct sunlight.

9: Stay out of salt water and swimming pools.( because of pool chlorine and acids etc, could cause ink to come out or fade on you) do not do it  directly or be in contact or in them until healed 8 to 10 days.

10: Use sun block if you are in the sun - ( after it heals ) This helps and prevents the weather from fading your tattoos.

11: All work is guaranteed. Some touch up may be required. Touch-up work that is required DUE TO YOUR NEGLIGENCE will normally be at your own expense.

12: Remember, Always seek a professional tattoo artist for all tattooing.
