How do I take care of my tattoo?

Your artists will give you A thorough instructions on the aftercare. But here are the general guidelines!

Second Skin

Second Skin is a breathable protective patch that makes healing super easy. Just leave it on for 3–4 days — you can even shower with it (just keep showers shorter and not too hot, since heat can loosen the patch).

It’s totally normal for ink and plasma to collect underneath and form little bubbles, so don’t panic — that’s part of the healing process.

On day 4, gently peel the Second Skin off. It can be a little uncomfortable, but that’s normal too. After that, just apply a small amount of moisturizer or tattoo care cream whenever the skin feels dry, tight, or itchy. Less is more — don’t overdo it.

Healing usually takes around 2–4 weeks. During the first week, avoid swimming pools, saunas, and intense sports if possible.

Cling Film

For larger tattoos, we sometimes use cling film instead of Second Skin. Leave the first wrap on until the evening — if your appointment was later in the day, you can keep it on overnight and change it the next morning.

When removing the wrap, wash the tattoo thoroughly with water and mild soap, then let it air out for a little while. After that, switch to using a light layer of moisturizer or tattoo care cream whenever needed. Again: less is more. Your tattoo may feel tight or itchy while healing, which is completely normal.

Healing usually takes around 2–4 weeks. Avoid swimming pools, saunas, and heavy workouts for at least the first week.

Can I just stop by?

Definitely. Feel free to swing by to say hi, check out artists’ work, browse merch, or see what’s happening in the studio.
