Your tattoo is fading - 10 steps to keep it sharp!

Yess! Your new tattoo is finally done, but now the real work begins to ensure it heals beautifully. Here are 10 things to keep in mind after your tattoo session!

1. Keep the protective film on – Leave it for 3–5 days to protect against bacteria and promote healing.

2. Wash gently – Use mild, fragrance-free soap and lukewarm water. Pat it dry – don’t rub!

3. Moisturize properly – Apply a fragrance-free, tattoo-friendly moisturizer, but don’t overdo it to avoid soft scabs.

4. Avoid sunlight – UV rays can fade the tattoo. Once healed, always use sunscreen with SPF 30+.

5. Minimize friction – Loose clothing helps prevent rubbing that can wear down the ink.

6. Stay hydrated – Drink enough water to keep your skin healthy and your tattoo vibrant.

7. Avoid intense workouts – Avoid excessive sweating for at least 48 hours to prevent irritation.

8. Don’t pick or scratch – Let scabs fall off naturally to avoid uneven fading.

Follow these steps, and your tattoo will heal well and stay sharp! 🔥✨

9. Trust a professional – High-quality ink and an experienced tattoo artist make a big difference in durability.

10. Commit to long-term skincare – Moisturizing and sun protection will keep your tattoo looking great for years.
