STEP 1

Keep bandage on OVERNIGHT!

The bandage must be worn until the tattoo has finished bleeding or scabbing will occur!

This is the most important step to a smooth healing.

STEP 2

Wash twice a day with Dial Gold starting when you take the bandage off. Gently wash the tattoo once in the Am and once in the PM. Build soap up in your palms and pat the suds onto the tattoo to insure a gentle application. rinse with water and gently pat dry with paper towels

(avoid hand-rags and bathroom towels)

Step 3

Apply AQUAPHOR twice a day for the first 2 days.

A VERY THIN LAYER.

Apply LUBRIDERM 2-3 times a day starting day 3 until healed (14days)

It’s very important to know AQUAPHOR must be used in thin/small amounts, spread it as far as you can and use a clean paper towel to blot off the excess, I generally blot the tattoo 5-10 times

**DO THIS

Step 4

Avoid sunlight & excess water for 2 weeks!

Once your tattoo is healed, use sunblock to prevent fading anytime you plan getting on getting some Sun. Sun is the main cause of fading overtime. No Swimming or Sub- merging the tatoo in water for 2 weeks (no baths, pool, hottubs etc.) avoid long showers while healing.

**IMPORTANT** dont pick scabs or flakes! let them fall off naturally, be cautious while showering, this is when your tattoo flakes and scabs tend to get accidentally ripped of the easiest.

Tattoos take 10-14 days to heal
