We are using new and disposed sterile needles, tips, gloves, ink caps, rinse cups for your tattoo. After spending the time and money to get
a professional and hygienic tattoo,please follow the steps below to avoid ruining the time and money to get a professi your new ink as a
result of poor aftercare.

1. Remove the cover film after 2-3 hours, do not cover it for longer than 6 hours, the reason for covering a fresh tattoo is to protect it from dirt,
bacteria and keep any blood or fluids from getting on your clothes, and the reason not to cover it too long is to let the skin breath, this will help
the skin to recover.


2. After removing the cover, wash the tattoo gently yet thoroughly using only tap water or warm water. do not apply soap or liquid wash, better to
pat dry with paper kitchen towel. You may shower with your new tattoo but keep showers quick. Always keep your tattoo area dry and clean, do
not apply any cream or lotion on it.

3. On the second day , you can wash your tattoo if there is any fluid coming out. Remember to clean your hands before touch on your tattoo and
use a clean paper towel to avoid infection.

4.On the third day, you can thinly apply Papaw ointment 2-3 times daily or when the tattoo feels dry or itchy for 2-3 weeks or until the skin is fully
recovered. Do not apply any other cream with chemical ingredients or sunscreen on it.

5. You can do some light exercise after 3-4 days.

6. Do not swim or soak, Do not have baths, Do not expose your tattoo under direct sunlight for at least 14 days or until the skin is fully healed.

7. Wear loose clothing. Tattoos may form scabs and flaking skin. Leave your tattoo alone, do not pick or scratch. After your initial flake falls off,
you may experience a secondary flake known as milky skin which will last up to a week. Keep it dry and applying Papaw ointment if it feels itchy
or dry until this goes away.
