TATTOO HUMANITY

Expect the artist to prepare the design, clean and shave the area, apply the stencil, and then begin tattooing. Brakes are taken as needed but kept short.

Healing typically takes 2-4 weeks, with initial scabbing and peeling followed by the development of a healed appearance. Continuation or touch ups are done after one month.

Keep the tattoo clean and moisturized, avoid direct sunlight and swimming, and follow any specific instructions provided by your artist.

If using Aquaphor or A&D always remember to wipe off any excess with your clean hand to avoid a poor healing experience.

If using an adhesive bandage such as Saniderm or Tegaderm:

So long as the tattoo remains sealed under the bandage it is safe and can be removed whenever you like. It is normal to see blood and ink under the bandage. Remove after sweat induced physical activity.
