Heal it right
Aftercare
Tattoo
Keep the wrap on
Leave the initial bandage on for 2–4 hours (or as your artist directs). Wash your hands before touching it.
Wash gently
Clean 2–3× daily with lukewarm water and fragrance-free soap. Pat dry with a clean paper towel — never rub.
Moisturize & protect
Apply a thin layer of fragrance-free lotion. Avoid direct sun, pools, baths, and the gym until fully healed (2–4 weeks).
Don’t pick
It will peel and itch — that’s normal. Don’t scratch or peel scabs; it can pull out ink and cause scarring.
Piercing
Saline twice daily
Spray or soak with sterile saline morning and night. Avoid alcohol, peroxide, and harsh ointments.
Hands off
Don’t twist, turn, or play with the jewelry. Only touch with clean hands when cleaning.
Avoid submerging
No pools, lakes, or hot tubs while healing. Keep makeup and hair products away from the site.
Leave jewelry in
Don’t change or remove jewelry until fully healed (6 weeks–6 months depending on placement) or the hole can close.
