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.
