Tattoo Aftercare
Thank you for visiting us at Flux Ink Tattoo Studio!
Please find information about your tattoo aftercare routine below:
- Keep your tattoo wrapped for 3 hours after your appointment.
- Wash hands thoroughly.
- After 3 hours take off the clingfilm and gently wash down with warm soapy water (unscented soap).
- Pat dry with kitchen towel and allow to air dry for 15 minutes.
- Apply a small amount of Palmers Cocoa Butter, just enough to cover the entire tattoo but not enough to be visible on the surface.
- Apply cream 2-3 times a day with dry hands.
- Don’t wear tight fitting clothes.
- Don’t pick scabs.
- Don’t soak your tattoo in water.
- No saunas/ swimming/ steam rooms/ sun-beds until your tattoo is fully healed.
- Wait for your tattoo to fully heal before applying sun cream.
- Tattoos should take around 2 weeks to heal after this you can stop with your aftercare.
Please ask your artist if you have any further questions about aftercare.
