Tattoo Aftercare
It is recommended to take the bandage off after 2-3 days and wash gently using your fingers with a mild, unscented soap and warm water. If the bandage is sticking, run under warm water and gently peel away. Allow to dry for 30 minutes and apply a very thin layer of unscented, hypoallergenic lotion (like Lubriderm). Reapply whenever the tattoo is dry. Do not over apply lotion. Make sure you gently rub the lotion in, so it's completely absorbed.
​
The tattoo may appear as if it is oozing ink or have thick sticky substance under the bandage. This is normal and not a cause for concern as it is just plasma secretion which will assist in your tattoo healing.
​
