1. Leave bandage on for at least four hours, but no longer than twelve hours. Do not re-bandage your tattoo.

2. Wash your tattoo using an anti-bacterial soap, water and your fingers. Do not use a wash cloth, and pat dry (DO NOT RUB).

3. Wash your tattoo at least four times a day for the first three days.

4. Three times a day, apply a thin layer of an anti-biotic such as Bacitracin to your tattoo and work it into your skin. Do not leave a thick coat of anti-biotic on your tattoo. If it is too moist, you will lose color.

5. After three days, start washing your tattoo once per day, and stop using the anti-biotic and switch to a lotion such as Lubriderm or Curel. Avoid any lotions with aloe vera, or heavy perfumes. Use lotion 2-3 times per day. Continue to use the lotion until your skin is no longer dry and peeling. This should take around three weeks. Do not scratch or pick at your tattoo.

6. DO NOT go swimming, or do anything to soak your tattoo in water for the first two weeks.

7. Avoid getting your tattoo in direct sunlight for the first two weeks, after it is fully healed, you may want to use a strong sun block on your tattoo to keep the color brighter and stronger.
