Care for your tattoo for improved results

If you are planning of getting inked, contact our specialists today. Our experienced and talented artists are not just capable of drawing the most intricate designs, we also offer complete aftercare advice. Once you leave the studio, the care of your tattoo becomes your responsibility. How you care for your skin will have a direct effect on the finished result of your tattoo. However, we have a few recommendations for you.

Ways to take care of your tattoo:

  • Remove the dressing after approximately 2 – 3 hours depending on the size of the tattoo. 
  • Wash the tattoo with warm soapy water, pat dry with kitchen roll or a clean towel.
  • Apply a small amount of the recommended cream with clean fingers. We recommend ‘Sorry Mom PRO Tattoo Balm’ (whilst we understand that many studios recommend Bepanthen, We do not advise this due to a change in the product’s ingredients which may affect your tattoo and the healing process.)
  • Reapply cream 4 – 5 times daily for around a week to 10 days.
  • The balm prevents dryness and itchiness and is recommended by tattoo artists worldwide. It hydrates your new tattoo and protects it to the best standard. It does not contain alcohol or perfume. The 'Sorry Mom PRO Tattoo Balm' is produced in Europe.
  • The cleanser is developed for the tattooing procedure and easily washes away excess blood and ink. It can also be used during the aftercare to maintain the cleanliness of the tattoo to help it heal to the best standard. It cares and refreshes the skin in a rich, long-lasting foam.
  • The butter is developed for the tattooing procedure to keep the skin elastic and soft. It quickly absorbs into the skin to ensure the best outcome for the tattoo. it can also be used as immediate aftercare to keep your tattoo fresh and supple.

Further care 

  • DO NOT let the tattoo get contaminated with dirt or grease etc.  
  • DO NOT expose the tattoo to the sun, swimming pools or use a sun bed for 2 – 3 weeks. 
  • DO NOT pick or scratch the tattoo whilst it is healing as this will pull the colour out.
