-
Keep the bandage on for 6 days (or follow your artist’s specific instructions).
To remove, gently lift the bandage from the corners and edges. We recommend removal during a shower for added comfort.
-
The bandage is designed to be permeable, so your tattoo continues healing underneath.
You may shower with the bandage on; however, please avoid using hot water.
-
Do not submerge your tattoo in water (such as in swimming pools, hot tubs, saunas, or baths) during the healing period.
-
Some fluid may collect under the bandage and may leak, which could soil your bedding and clothing. Please take appropriate precautions.
-
Gently wash the tattooed area with unscented soap.
Pat the area dry using a clean towel or paper towel.
If any adhesive residue remains, gently remove it without scrubbing.
Use unscented lotion or tattoo aftercare cream when moisturizing your tattoo
-
Your tattoo may feel tender, and removal of the bandage might cause slight discomfort.
Avoid:
Peeling the bandage aggressively or in any direction other than gently lifting from the edges.
Constantly touching or picking at the bandage or the tattoo itself.
Submerging the tattoo in water during the healing process.
-
Mild irritation around the bandaged area is normal.
If irritation persists, please contact our shop or consult a healthcare professional, as it may indicate an allergic reaction to the bandage or adhesive.
