Tattoo After Care, courtesy of Captain Jack’s

Bandage must stay on a minimum of 4 hours

With CLEAN HANDS, carefully:

  • Remove bandage
  • Wash thoroughly with warm water and mild soap (Use fingertips only, no washcloths. It should feel squeaky clean, with no slime.)
  • Dry tattoo by pressing gently with a CLEAN TOWEL

From the third day on use white unscented lotion, such as Lubriderm

Wash tattoo 3-4 times a day for 3-5 days (Only scrub your tattoo the first time you wash it)

Remember!

  • Your tattoo must be cared for properly, it is your obligation.
  • Wear clean loose clothing over tattoo.
  • Keep all hands off tattoo unless washing, until healed.
  • Do not scratch or pick tattoo.
