Tattoos are beautiful. They are forms of artistic expression. They have become increasing popular in regular society. Every one loves ink. Your social status doesn’t really mean anything. It’s almost like tattooing has become a part of our everyday lives. To keep them beautiful, good tattoo aftercare is a must.
Tattoo during the healing phase
There’s nothing more disappointing than seeing what would have been a great body of artwork but it is: faded, distorted, or poorly healed. Tattoos serve as an artistic testament of different milestones that mark our lives. The healing process plays a very critical part in how the tattoo will look for life after it’s completely healed. Masterminding the design and taking the pain is only half of it. Taking care of the new ink properly through the healing process is another thing in itself. It’s something that isn’t stressed enough.
Flowers N Flames have created a tattoo healing and restoration salve to help aid tattoo lovers and newbies in healing their artwork as quickly and easily as possible. The best part about using this product is that you easily maintain the beauty and integrity of your ink as long as you use it and follow the basic tattoo aftercare instructions. A&D ointment and anything petroleum based is a huge no no on healing ink. This salve is Shea butter based with a few other skin repairing oils and ingredients combined into the formula. Raw shea butter naturally repairs broken and dry skin, making it ideal for fresh tattoos.
Standard tattoo aftercare rules
- No direct exposure to Sunlight or direct heat. This can make the ink bleed which can distort the art work.
- Avoid water that includes pools and jacuzzi’s . Clean it separately outside of the bath and shower.
- Keep fabric away from loose fitting clothes. Fabric constantly rubbing up against the newly tattooed area can irritate the skin.
When cleaning your new ink:
Wait approximately 2 days after the new ink has been set before you start cleaning. Let the tattoo dry out naturally. When this happens, you are all clear to go ahead and begin cleaning your new ink. Clean with clear antibacterial liquid soap. AVOID FRAGRANCES AT ALL COST. When you are finished cleaning it, pat it dry with a towel.
It is said that the initial healing process can take up to three weeks depending on the size of the tattoo. However, the tattoo isn’t completely set permanently until after a years time. Tattoos are beautiful but like anything else worth having, they require care. Plain and simple, take care of your ink.
