How do I care for my new tattoo?

Caring for a new tattoo is an important part of the tattoo process, ensuring that your tattoo heals properly and looks its best for years to come. To properly care for your new tattoo, follow these steps:

1. Keep your tattoo clean: Wash your new tattoo gently with warm water and mild, fragrance-free soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing or rubbing, as this can irritate the tattooed area.

2. Apply a thin layer of tattoo ointment: After washing your tattoo, apply a thin layer of tattoo ointment to keep the area moist and prevent scabbing.

3. Avoid picking or scratching your tattoo: It’s important to resist the urge to pick or scratch your new tattoo, as this can cause damage and affect the healing process.

4. Protect your tattoo from the sun: Keep your new tattoo covered and out of direct sunlight to prevent fading and damage.

By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your new tattoo heals properly and looks its best for years to come. Remember to always consult with your tattoo artist for specific care instructions tailored to your individual tattoo.
