Caring for Your New Tattoo

Once your tattoo is finished and you have left the studio, it's up to you to take good care of your new tattoo. Taking care of your tattoo is just as important as your tattoo selection! It's very important that you follow these aftercare guidelines.

Tattooing involves piercing thousands of tiny holes in the skin at rapid speed. Your skin reacts to this as it would to any other wound, and it takes some time for the body to heal and the tattoo to set. At this stage, proper care is of the utmost importance to avoid dangerous infections that can ruin your tattoo and cause health problems.

If you follow the steps in our aftercare instructions, your tattoo should set nicely within roughly two weeks. By the way, the same procedures apply to cosmetic tattoos. Feel free to come back to our studio for a free checkup!
