Please follow these suggested healing instructions unless otherwise suggested by your artist
 

• Leave your bandage on overnight

• Remove the bandage the following morning and gently wash with soap and warm water

• Allow your tattoo to air dry for about an hour and then apply a thin layer of unscented, water-based lotion (ie. Lubriderm)

• Apply lotion twice daily until your tattoo peels ( about a week to 10 days.)

• Be sure to keep your tattoo clean by washing daily.

• Do NOT pick or scratch. Allow skin to fall off naturally.

• Do NOT over-moisturize. Apply lotion sparingly.

• Do NOT go swimming in lakes, oceans, pools, hot tubs, or rivers until your tattoo has healed.

• If you have any questions please call The Hive 503.208.3272
