Tattoo Aftercare Instructions
First Night
- Leave the covering on your tattoo for a few hours after your appointment.
- Before bed, gently remove the covering and wash the tattoo with warm water and a plant-based soap.
- Pat the area dry using a clean paper towel.
- Apply a plant-based aftercare cream with clean hands.
- Re-wrap the tattoo before going to sleep.
Next Morning
- It’s normal to see excess ink under the wrap.
- Remove the covering and wash the tattoo again with warm water and plant-based soap.
- Re-wrap the tattoo during the day and repeat the cleaning and moisturising routine in the evening.
First Two Nights
- Sleep with a fresh covering for the first two nights.
- After that, allow the tattoo to breathe and remain uncovered.

- Do not pick, scratch, or peel the healing skin.
