Before the Tattoo

Exfoliate Gently the Day Before

Enjoy a long shower with a mild body scrub. You can use a bought or DIY scrub up to three times a week leading to your appointment – just avoid it on the tattoo day.

Moisturize After Showers

Keep your skin hydrated by moisturizing after every shower, except on the tattoo day.

Shower Pre-Tattoo

Shower on the day of your appointment, but no creams or scrubs, please!

✦ Clean, Comfortable Clothing

Wear fresh, preferably dark and loose-fitting clothes to your session.

✦ Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water the week before and on the day of your tattoo.

✦ Eat a Nourishing Meal

Have a meal with plenty of healthy fats and proteins before coming in.

✦ Bring Snacks

Pack snacks or fruits for the studio. We’ll have water, tea, and coffee ready for you!
