Proper Aftercare Instructions for Your New Tattoo
At Broad Street Tattoo, we want to ensure that your new tattoo heals beautifully and maintains its vibrancy for years to come. To achieve this, it's essential to follow proper aftercare instructions. Here are some tips to help you care for your new ink:
- Keep the tattoo clean and dry for at least the first 24 hours.
- After the first day, gently wash the tattoo with mild, unscented soap and warm water. Pat dry with a clean towel and allow it to air dry for approximately 15 minutes.
- Apply a thin layer of fragrance-free, hypoallergenic lotion or ointment to the tattoo to keep it moisturized.
- Avoid exposing the tattoo to direct sunlight, as UV rays can fade the tattoo and slow down the healing process.
- Avoid swimming or submerging the tattoo in water, as it can lead to infection and fading.
- Avoid picking or scratching the tattoo as it heals, as this can cause scarring and affect the overall appearance.
