Question 1

HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO KEEP THE SECOND SKIN ON?

Accepted Answer

Keep the second skin on for the next 24h. We suggest that you take the second skin off with some warm water or in shower.
However, if the skin should react irritated or allergic to the second skin, please peel off carefully directly under running water and wash off the tattoo or the skin area afterwards.

Question 2

HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO KEEP THE PLASTIC WARP?

Accepted Answer

Keep it for the next 3h - 4h, then you can wash your tattoo gently with warm water (we also suggest PH free soap).

Question 3

HOW LONG DOES THE HEALING PROCESS TAKE?

Accepted Answer

Healing period might take around 3 - 5 weeks depending on the size, details and placement.
Bigger tattoos (long session tattoos) might take some extra days.

Question 4

WHAT TO DO WHEN THE TATTOO STARTS TO SCAB?

Accepted Answer

Tattoos in the process of healing form scabs and itch for some time. The scab falls off by itself and in no case scratch, as this immensely affects the quality of healing.

Question 5

WHEN CAN I SHOWER?

Accepted Answer

You can shower from the session day, but no bathing and keep your shower time to a minimum during the healing period.

Question 6

USING THE CREAM PROPERLY

Accepted Answer

Apply a small amount of cream to the tattoo. Do not cover your tattoo with plastic wrap again.
Do not use Vaseline or Bepanthen - we recommend proper tattoo cream.
The tattoo should be creamed 2-3 times a day. Creaming can be reduced by once a week.

Question 7

WHAT CLOTHING YOU SHOULD WEAR

Accepted Answer

While your tattoo heals, we suggest that you wear long clothing & not too tight ones, so your fresh tattoo can breathe and also avoid direct sunlight.

THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT DO IN THE FIRST 4 WEEKS

Accepted Answer
