The Tattoo is your responsibility after you leave the shop!!!!!!!!!!
Wash gently with warm water and antibacterial soap such as Liquid Dial, or Soft Soap...gently pat dry.
For the first 3 days apply a very thin layer of vitamin A&D ointment several times a day. Gently rub in like a lotion...after the 3rd day just apply lotion such as Curel several times daily.
For the first 2 nights when you sleep residue may come off onto yous sheets. Do not be alarmed, this is natural and will wash out.
Never scratch, pick, or rub your tattoo. If a scab forms let it fall off naturally. Do Not Pick At It!!!
