If you finally decide to get a tattoo you will go to a
recommended tattoo artist. He will probably show you some
designs to pick from. If you don't like any of them you can ask
him to do a custom one. Be careful when choosing the design of
your new tattoo because you will live with it all your life.
anyway, after getting a tattoo done you should know some
aftercare tips that cannot be ignored.
If you go to a good tattoo shop than the tattooist will clean
and apply antiseptic ointment to the tattoo while creating it.
This is the healthiest way to make a tattoo.
After the job is finished the artist will clean it and use
another coat of ointment. Then will apply a piece of cellophane
or soft tissue.
After all that is done the tattooist will explain you how to
take care of your new tattoo or he will give you a sheet with
detailed instructions. in case none of this happens i will
explain you in the rest of this article what you should do.
1. First of all, when you get home, don't jump immediately in
the shower. My advice is to keep it dry(but also clean). Be sure
to wash your hands very well before touching the new tattoo.
This way you won't have any complications or infections.
2. Next, go to the first drug store you find and buy a tube of
A&D Ointment. Apply it on the tattoo the first four too six
days. After it gets dry remove the old application with a piece
of soft cloth and then apply another one. Be very careful not to
rub too hard the new tattoo. Do not use soap in the first few
day, it's not recommended.
3. After few days you can stop using the A&D Ointment. Try to
use some kind unscented, unmedicated body lotion, as some scents
may irritate the still-tender skin of your tattoo.
4. After you have applied the body lotion for around week you
can stop doing that. A problem is that when the tattoo heals it
will scab in some portions. When you will try to pick this cabs
be very careful not to damage your tattoo design. So the best
for you and your tattoo is to let it heal alone.
So after you get a new tattoo and fallow this after car
instructions you can be sure that you won't have any problems. I
use this methods my self and i can sincerly recommend it.
