Leave the bandage on for 2–3 hours.

Wash your hands thoroughly with soap before touching your new tattoo. After removing the bandage, gently wash the tattoo with warm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Using your fingertips, carefully remove any remaining Vaseline, plasma, or excess ink. Do not use anything abrasive to clean your tattoo.

Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a clean disposable paper towel, or allow it to air dry.

Wash your tattoo at least twice a day (morning and night) until it is completely healed. Regular showering is fine. Do not submerge the tattoo in water for extended periods until it has healed — this includes baths, swimming pools, lakes, and hot tubs.

Around day 3–4, the tattoo will typically begin to dry out, peel, and may start to itch. This is a normal part of the healing process. Do not scratch, rub, or pick at the tattoo, even if it feels itchy. If needed, gently tap the area or apply a small amount of fragrance-free moisturizer to relieve discomfort.

Apply a fragrance-free, lightweight moisturizer 1–2 times per day, using a small amount. Gently rub it in until fully absorbed.

DO NOT OVER-MOISTURIZE.

If a scab forms, it may appear tinted with the color of the ink used. This does not mean the ink is coming out. Allow any scabs to fall off naturally.

The tattoo may look dull or cloudy until it is fully healed. This is normal and will improve within a few weeks.

Wear loose-fitting clothing over the area during the healing process
