I do not provide numb cream due to individuals having adverse reactions, mild and severe. I do offer a numbing spray towards the end of the session.

Please do not apply numbing cream or spray before your appointment as it is not garunteed to be safe on/in an open wound and can majorly complicate not only the tattoo application process but also healing.

Without clear bandage (Saniderm:)

1. Wash cool water and unscented anti-bacterial soap, after washing your tattoo you should let your tattoo completely dry. You may do so by letting the piece air dry or dabbing it with a clean paper towel. (Do not use a regular towel they can harbor bacteria and be too abrasive.)

2. Once the Tattoo is completely dry, you should apply your ointment. (A&D or aquaphor or if you have another brand of Tattoo ointment you may use that as well). When you apply your ointment, you want to do a nice thin layer fully rubbed in like you would with lotion. You will repeat this 2 to 3 times a day during the first week. 

♦ It is completely normal for your tattoo to peel around day three or four

♦ Do not pick or scratch at your tattoo let it peel naturally. 

♦ During the healing process, you should not: Swim, taking baths, exfoliate, or exercise. Anything where the Tattoo is in a submerged body of water could introduce bacteria. Cool short showers are perfectly fine and reccomended. 

♦ If you must exercise, I advised to wait at least a week to do so as you do not want to affect the quality of your tattoo. Please do not exercise with Saniderm on.

♦ Keep your tattoo out of direct sunlight for at least 2 1/2 to 3 weeks if you are out in the sun after the first two weeks, please apply SPF to your tattoo.

For clear bandage (Saniderm) wrap:

1. Leave it on for three nights. Please keep an eye on it to make sure it is not punctured or leaking.

2. After the three nights. I advised to remove in the shower (it makes the whole process easier) as you peel the wrap off. after the wrap is removed you should continue with regular aftercare (see instructions above.)

♦ While wearing the wrap, you should not be exercising or swimming/submerging as you do not want to trap sweat or water underneath the wrap as it could create and trap bacteria.

Your design will be ready on Tuesday the week of your appointment unless other changes were requested to be done, then the drawing will be presented day of the appointment☺
