If you follow these simple steps your tattoo will last you a lifetime. If any problems arise with your tattoo, come back to us for a free touch up. These touchups usually take a few minutes of your time, but ensure that your tattoo is perfect!
  • Remove the dressing after a minimim of four hours.
  • Wash the tattoo gently with soap and warm water, making sure that you remove all of the vaseline and the skin feels normal to the touch.
  • Pat / Dab the tattoo dry gently with paper towels Apply a small amount of Savlon or aqueous cream once or twice a day as required.
  • Too much cream will damage the tattoo - BE CAREFUL! You may bath or shower with your new tattoo, but dont soak the tattoo for too long in any kind of water.
  • Salt and chlorinated water will destroy your tattoo!
  • The ink we have placed into your skin is easily damaged by the sun, so if you want your tattoo to look good, you should avoid getting it sunburnt.
  • The tattoo us "under" your skin, so a tan will tone down the colours.
  • Use sunblock at all times!
