A Further Recommendation

Your tattoo artist wants to see you come back to get another new awesome tattoo design, not clean up after the first piece of body art was poorly cared for when it was healing. 

Listen to the advice of your tattoo artist when it comes to different approaches to tattoo aftercare. These days it is part of their duty of care to give you a better understanding for taking care of freshly tattooed skin. 

Experienced tattoo professionals have seen all types of clients, with all different skin types, and can offer you extremely valuable aftercare advice that will help you immediately and for the lifetime of your tattoo. 

If you notice a problem with your healing tattoo, head straight to the tattoo artist where you got it. They can help you change up your aftercare regimen or allay your fears. 

If they notice a serious problem beyond their scope of advice, they’ll refer you to a doctor for treatment. 

A 3-6 weeks completed healing process may seem painful and annoying, but over the lifetime of your body art it’s a small price to pay for beautiful ink!
