What is the tattoo aftercare process recommended by Sideshow Alley Tattoo Odditorium?

Asked 6 months ago
Sideshow Alley Tattoo Odditorium recommends a thorough and consistent tattoo aftercare process to ensure proper healing and vibrant, long-lasting results. After getting inked, it is crucial to leave the bandage on for at least two hours, protecting the fresh tattoo from bacteria and irritants. Gently cleanse the area with warm water and antibacterial soap, patting it dry with a clean towel. Avoid scrubbing or picking at scabs, and apply a thin layer of fragrance-free ointment or tattoo-specific aftercare product to keep the tattoo moisturized. It's necessary to avoid soaking the tattoo in water, excessive sun exposure, and tight or abrasive clothing during the healing period. Following these guidelines will aid in maintaining the integrity of the tattoo and minimize the risk of infections or damage.
