If you’re the lucky owner of a new tattoo — it would be a shame to ruin everything during the healing process, right?

To achieve the best results during healing, it’s worth keeping a few simple but very important rules in mind. All of the following information is advisory. It’s more of a theory on tattoo healing, based on collective observations of tattoo artists and over half a century of modern tattoo history.

• A fresh tattoo should be washed several times a day.
• A fresh tattoo needs to “breathe.”
• It must not be irritated or overheated.
• A fresh tattoo should be moisturized with specialized care products.
• Hygiene rules must be followed to avoid infection.
• It’s a good idea to take a day off after the session so your skin can regenerate calmly.
• No gym for 10 days!

These are general guidelines for healing any tattoo, but every case is different. Healing a tattoo on the ear is not the same as healing a large, colorful piece on the thigh.

For this reason, we’ve prepared a detailed instruction guide for all types of work we do — just choose your category, read it, and follow the recommendations.
