ARTIFACT NO NONSENSE TATTOO AFTERCARE SUGGESTION
ABOVE ALL KEEP YOUR TATTOO CLEAN. REMEMBER YOUR NEW TATTOO IS SIMILAR TO A CUT OR ABRASION. TREAT IT LIKE SO TO MINIMIZE RISK OF INFECTION FROM ENVIROMENTAL AGENTS OR ACCIDENTS.
Always wash your hands before touching your tattoo.
In the shower let water run over the tattoo instead of directly spraying onto it. Lightly wash the tattooed area rinse gently.
It is imperative for the correct healing of your new tattoo that you do not pick or rub off any peeling skin before it is ready to fall off. Premature peeling can cause ink to fall out or leave scar tissue.
After the tattoo is done peeling and your skin returns to normal, apply your choice of aftercare once a day. This will brighten up the new tattoo and extend the life of the color. We suggest Fellowship Brand Tattoo Balm for its all natural and organic ingredients.
