Suggested tattoo after care

We provide an aftercare goodie bag for all large ($150 &up) tattoos free of charge (also available for purchase)

Healing times vary per person

Avoid direct sunlight after getting a new tattoo or cover the area with light clothing as sunlight without protection can prematurely distort the artwork. If the tattoo is healed consider using a high SPF sunscreen to protect the integrity of the tattoo

Any artist can identify when you've had excessive sunlight exposure to your new tattoo. This does also put you at a higher risk of skin cancer. In this case you may be charged for a touch up.

Please protect your investment!
