Aftercare sheet

Wash with Blue Green Foam Soap, medium pressure, to get rid of plasma and blood until all debris is gone. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and softly wipe with a wet paper towel
Gently apply a thin layer of Aquatat ointment or Ocean Care cream 2-3 times a day until absorbed
Wear loose clothes. Don’t pick at your tattoo
Don’t go in the pool, ocean or hot tub until healed Avoid your shampoo & soap in the shower
Avoid direct sun while healing, don’t sweat, keep cool Apply Ink RENU and SEA LIFE SPF 45 Sunscreen after your tattoo is healed
H2Ocean’s got you covered with complete aftercare kits, Extreme Tattoo Care for extremely hard to heal tattoos, and Ultimate Tattoo Care for the fastest natural heal. Lock in all your ink so you don’t lose it on your clothes or bedsheets
Lock in moisture, form a barrier and keep your tattoos looking fresh!
After your Tattooist has applied your design, they will wash off the excess ink with green soap spray and paper towels or a wet wipe. Your artist will apply a liberal amount of Vaseline and Clingfilm the area, securing with tape.
After 3+ hours take off the dressing and wash with hot water and a fragrance free soap (Old Yakuza secret! After you have cleaned your tattoo wash finally with ice cold water letting the water run indirectly over your new tattoo for 30-45 seconds – this closes the pores and prevents further drainage) Gently pat your tattoo dry, coat with a thin layer of Coco Butter and reapply Clingfilm (Repeat this process 3 times a day for 3 days!)
If you scratch or pick at the scabs you will be pulling the fresh ink out of your skin and your tattoo will end up looking faded and/or patchy. Coco butter is available from branches of Boots, Tesco and other large supermarkets.
Do not go swimming or soak in water until your new design is fully healed.
We all take different times to heal but as a rule of thumb it will heal in roughly a week to ten days, after which you may experience a form of light skin peeling. Once it is healed you will need to look after your new tattoo with a moisturizer and if you go in the sun, use a high factor sun block.
If you have any questions or worries about the way your tattoo is healing then do not hesitate to call us or pop back into the studio.
We thank you for your custom and hope to see you again soon!
