How do I prepare for my tattoo appointment?

Answer

Your time with us is important, to maximize this time its necessary that we both show up fresh and ready. Our aim is your comfort. Please make sure you have a good nights rest the night before. Please refrain from drinking alcohol the night before or day of your appointment, as it tends to thin your blood and impair our ability to work effectively. Eat a healthy breakfast or snack before hand or bring something along with you. You’re welcome to bring in some headphones, reading material, or anything that will help you to relax. You can invite a friend for emotional support but please limit guests to one person. We would appreciate it if you could arrive 5-10 minutes beforehand to allow time to sign in and get settled.

Question 11

How do i care for my tattoo?

Answer

We recommend washing your tattoo with unscentrd anti-bacterial soap at least 3 times a day. You should wash your tattoo with warm water, this helps clear the lymph from your skin which is what can cause scabbing. Keep your tattoo CLEAN! Do not leave a thick layer of clothing or anything else over your tattoo, it needs to breathe to heal. Lastly, DO NOT pick at scabs, this will pull the color out. - Use unscented (fragrance free) anti-bacterial soap (Dial Gold) - First 3 days use aquaphor a minimum of 3 times a day (can use A&D ointment) - After 3 days, use unscented lotion (Aveeno or Lubriderm are great options) - Do not soak in tubs, pools, lakes, oceans, etc. - Stay out of direct sunlight.
