After you get your tattoo it will be important to take care of your new tattoo. Immediately after the tattoo has been completed, take 5 minutes at the Studio having it patted dry with paper towels to mop any blood etc. Do not cover the design with any makeshift paper towel ‘bandage’ but moisturize the design with the appropriate lotion. Following this procedure will prevent any scab formation. Do not pick your newly created tattoo – it can remove the colour of the tattoo design. It may be tempting to scratch the tattoo, but apply lotion/cream on the tattoo when this arises without over moisturising.</p>
<p>It will be important to avoid exposure to sun on your new tattoo – just remember to cover up your tattoo to protect the ink colouration etc. Whilst you may shower with your new tattoo, avoid soaking in a bath, spa or swimming in pools where chlorine exposure can be detrimental.
