After getting a tattoo, proper aftercare is crucial for optimal healing. Follow these steps:

Day 1: Remove Plastic Wrap and Clean Remove the plastic wrap 8-10 hours after getting the tattoo. Clean the tattoo with a mild soap. Clean the tattoo four times on the first day.

Day 2: Gentle Cleaning Clean the tattoo three times on the second day with a mild soap.

Day 3-4: Regular Cleaning and Moisturizing Clean the tattoo twice a day from the third day onward. Begin applying a tattoo shining balm or Cetaphil lotion after cleaning.

Ongoing Care for 2 Weeks: Protect from Sun.

Avoid exposing the tattoo to direct sunlight for at least two weeks.

Do not submerge the tattoo in chlorine water or any contaminated water (e.g., pond or sea).

Refrain from scratching or forcefully peeling off dead skin.

Remember, consistency in following these aftercare steps will promote proper healing and preserve the vibrancy of your new tattoo.
