[1] REMOVE DRESSING TWO HOURS AFTER TATTOO WAS APPLIED.

[2] WASH TATTOO THOROUGHLY WITH HOT WATER AND SOAP, THEN PAT DRY AND LEAVE OPEN. DO NOT APPLY ANY MORE DRESSINGS.

[3] KEEP YOUR TATTOO CLEAN. DO NOT ALLOW PEOPLE TO TOUCH THE TATTOO WHILST HEALING (YOU DO NOT KNOW WHERE THEIR HANDS HAVE BEEN!!!!!!!!!!!). LOOSE, SOFT, CLEAN CLOTHES CAN BE WORN OVER A TATTOO WHILST IT IS HEALING, ALTHOUGH YOU SHOULD GET THE AIR TO IT WHERE POSSIBLE.

[4] YOUR TATTOO WILL FORM A SCAB ON THE SECOND DAY. ALTHOUGH YOU SHOULD STILL WASH THE TATTOO ONCE DAILY WITH HOT WATER AND SOAP, YOU MUST NOT SOAK THE SCAB. THIS MEANS SHOWERS ARE IDEAL OR YOU MUST KEEP YOUR TATTOO OUT OF THE BATH WATER TILL LAST SO IT DOES NOT SOAK. ALWAYS GENTLY PAT DRY IMMEDIATELY

[5] DO NOT PICK THE SCAB. THE SCAB WILL FALL OFF BY ITS SELF WHEN IT IS READY. THIS USUALLY TAKES ABOUT 7 TO 10 DAYS BUT VARIES FROM PERSON TO PERSON. YOU WILL GET DRY SKIN ON OR AROUND THE TATTOO DURING HEALING, THIS IS NORMAL.

[6] IF YOU WISH TO USE CREAM, A SMALL AMOUNT OF ‘SAVLON ANTISEPTIC CREAM’ CAN BE APPLIED ONCE A DAY TO HELP SOOTHE ANY ITCHY DISCOMFORT. DO NOT USE VASELINE; SAVLON WOUND WASH OR ANY OTHER CREAM.

[7] DO NOT SWIM OR SUN BATHE WHILE THE TATTOO IS HEALING.

IF YOU LOOK AFTER YOUR TATTOO YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS.
