For bigger sessions we can have regular breaks to move your car to avoid a fine!

How do I look after my tattoo?

After care instructions are given at the end of the tattoo but to summarise we recommend that:

  • Leave on wrap for approximately 2 hours.
  • Remove wrap and clean tattoo with warm soapy water.
  • Clean tattoo twice daily
  • Apply artist recommended aftercare 3 times a day for 10-14 days
  • Avoid soaking and picking tattoo for 2 weeks
