Recommended after care for your new Tattoo Remove dressing after 2 Hours wash tattoo with cold / warm water and soap. Pat dry with a clean towel Wash tattoo twice daily until healing is complete usually 10 -14 days. DO NOT rub the tattoo, pick or scratch the scab formation. Do not recover (except for occasional exposure to possible hazards) Avoid sunbathing, swimming, sauna, oil, grease, paint. I recommend that you use the cream provided or an antiseptic cream. We use the most up to date methods know whilst tattooing and piercing. All our equipment is sterilised at all times. We will therefore not be held responsible for any tattoo or piercing after you leave the studio.
