Aftercare.
Your artist will give you verbal and written aftercare instructions.
Please follow the basic hygiene instructions they provide you, as well as the following rules:
It will take a minimum of two weeks for your tattoo to heal. No direct sun exposure, swimming, contact sports.
It will itch, moisturize. Do not pick the scabs.
Contact your artist if you believe you need a touch-up appointment within the first year. These appointments are often complimentary if scheduled in a timely manner.
