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!
