What’s the healing process?
your tattoo will be covered with an adhesive bandage called second skin, which you should keep on for one or two days
it’s up to you how long you keep it on, but if you have sensitive skin I would recommend only keeping it on for the first night to protect it from your bed sheets, and then take it off in the morning
when you take the second skin off you should do it super slowly pulling in a downwards motion, in the shower with the water running over it
clean it with unscented soap and water
air dry it or dry with a clean paper towel, your normal bath towel could have bacteria on it that you don’t want infecting your tattoo
spread a very thin layer of aquaphor over your tattoo only twice a day
when it starts to scab, switch to unscented lotion - the aquaphor can be too tacky to spread over the scabs, and could pull off the scabbing, leading to an uneven heal
adding to the last point, don’t pick off the scabs, & just let them fall off on their own
try not to touch or scratch it - if it itches, light tapping or applying lotion helps
stay out of the sun, and don’t put sunscreen on it while it’s healing
don’t submerge your tattoo in water, such as in baths or pools
avoid strenuous workouts while you have the second skin on so sweat doesn’t accumulate under the bandage and cause infections
avoid wearing tight clothing over the tattoo that could rub against it and irritate your skin
after it heals you can start putting sunscreen on it - protecting it from the sun will help it age the best
