Care Sheet

  • Leave the bandage on for at least 2 hours, no longer than the next morning.
  • Remove the bandage and wash the tattoo with mild unscented soap. Do not let the shower head directly the hit the tattoo. When clean, pat dry with a towel (do not rub). Let air dry for 5 minutes. Do not re-bandage.
  • Apply a pea size amount of A&D ointment or hydrocortisone ointment to your fingertip. Rub ointment into tattoo until it’s absorbed into the skin. Do not apply heavily, tattoo must be able to breathe.
  • Check the tattoo every hour, if it is dry re-apply (see step 3). If it’s still moist, leave it alone.
  • After about 2 or 3 days, the tattoo may begin to peel like a sunburn. If so, DO NOT PICK OR SCRATCH at the tattoo. Let the flakes fall off while rubbing in ointment.
  • Use ointment for 3 to 5 days then switch to a fragrance free hand lotion such as Curel or Lubriderm.
  • Do not submerge tattoo in water (no baths, pool or ocean) for at least 2 weeks. Keep the tattoo out of direct sunlight as well tanning beds.
