Tattoo Aftercare Tips

Typical steps we recommend to take with your fresh tattoo to keep it clean and healing well.


STEP ONE

For second skin, remove after

3-5 days in a warm shower

For plastic wrap, remove

within 1-3 hours and wash

the area immediately.

STEP TWO

After washing the area with

UNSCENTED soap, pat dry

with a clean paper towel, and

apply the Hustle Butter, or

other approved aftercare

lotion/balm.

STEP THREE

Wash the area and apply the

Hustle Butter (other

approved aftercare lotion/

balm) twice a day for three

weeks.

General things to keep in mind with your fresh as well as your healed tattoos.

Avoid direct sun exposure while healing, and always wear sunscreen after the tattoo heals.

Avoid excessive sweating (saunas, intense workouts etc.) for at least 3 weeks.

Don’t soak your tattoo in water (pools or baths) for at least 3 weeks.

Don’t pick or itch your tattoo. If the itchy feeling is too much we recommend gently patting the area with clean hands or over your clothes.

If you need to touch your tattoo for any reason while healing only touch it with CLEAN hands.

Please reach out to your artist directly with any questions or concerns about your healing process!
