 Tattoo Aftercare

  Remove cling film. Wash with soap and water. Dry with kitchen towel or tissue. Apply Bepanthen (nappy rash cream) to new tattoo and at least three times daily. Do not go swimming or sunbed till fully healed.     Info: Bepanthen is a  Bayer plc registred trademark.    

 Piercing Aftercare

You should clean the piercing at least 2-3 times per day for the first week, then twice per day for 1 week, then down to once per day as this will speed up the healing process.         

Clean with a specialist solution we recommend you use Savlon Antiseptic Wound Wash (Small spray bottle)                              

   DO NOT USE SALT WATER AS THIS DRYS OUT YOUR SKIN.

Avoid touching your piercing unless wearing surgical gloves or use cotton buds ( YOUR HANDS ARE ALWAYS DIRTY)

Clean any crust from jewellery before turning, this is to avoid contamination in the piercing.

Remember a piercing is a wound to the body and should be kept clean at all times. You should avoid swimming pools and saunas for 2 weeks minimum.
