Tattoo Aftercare

The first few hours through the first two weeks

Remove the bandage put on by tattoo artist with freshly cleaned hands.

Use antibacterial non-scented soap to gently clean tattoo once a day. Pat dry with non-linty towel.

Apply a light layer of healing ointment (Hustle Butter Balm, Lotion, or Rejuvenating Stick) 3- 4 times per day.

DO NOT scratch or pick at your tattoo while it is healing.

Leave tattoo open without bandage unless to protect it.

Avoid direct sunlight, tanning beds and swimming pools/bath tub/hot tubs.

After the first two weeks

Apply ointment 3- 4 times per day.

For another two weeks, avoid direct sunlight, tanning beds and swimming pools/bathtubs/hot tubs. Use sunblock (SPF 50 or more) in the future to keep your tattoo protected from the sun.

ALWAYS consult your tattoo artist and/or a physician if your tattoo becomes infected
