2. Clean the image and put a thin coating of some tattoo aftercare ointment (INKFIXX® or TAT WAX® for example), wrap it around with cellophane and leave for 12 hours (this is usually done by a tattooist).

3. Remove the cellophane and clean the image with cold water with antimicrobial soap. Make sure your hands are clean too.

4. During the next week anoint the tattooed place 3 or 4 times a day, without wrapping with cellophane. Use the ointment wisely, make sure your tattoo “breathes”, this will prevent the pigments from discoloration.

5. Warning! During the adhesion period try to avoid:

suntanning

-  taking hot baths

-  going to high temperature saunas

-  overperspiration

-  scratching your tattoo

-  wearing wool and fitted clothes
