We at Euro Tattoo Studio take great pride and care to give you the best and most artistic Tattoo possible. As we have no control of how you take care of your Tattoo once you leave our Studio, here are a few tips on how to take care of your Tattoo while the healing process is taking place so your Tattoo looks great forever.

The Tattoo will ooze (lymph) this is a sign that healing is taking place. We have been tattooing in Europe and the whole world since 1982 and from experience we have learned that the best way to take care of your Tattoo is to cover the Tattoo with Glad Wrap® directly after the Tattoo is finished for the first two days. If left alone with no cream and no Glad Wrap® the Tattoo will dry up leaving a scab that will take a long time to fall off and will cause discomfort. The scab is caused by the lymph drying out. The lymph has great healing properties while it is still moist. So we wash the Tattoo down with warm water using a clean soft paper roll. Then Bepanthen Cream is to be lightly spread over the Tattoo and the Tattoo covered with a new piece of Glad Wrap® which is taped down on all four sides with soft bandage tape so no air reaches to the Tattoo. This bandage should be taken off 4 to 5 times a day and the Tattoo washed and creamed and covered again in the same manner. This procedure is very important so no infection can take place. Especially before retiring to bed the Tattoo should be washed down, creamed and covered with Glad Wrap® again and taped down so the bandage won't be moved while sleeping so no lint from the bed spread etc. comes on the Tattoo and the Tattoo won't dry out. After the two days you don't need the Glad Wrap® anymore, but cream the Tattoo every day with Bepanthen Cream a few times a day for the next 2 to 3 weeks till healed so the Tattoo won't dry up. If you have not creamed your Tattoo a scab will form. Don't pick any scab. In these two weeks also do not soak your Tattoo in water for long periods i.e. bathing. Stay out of the sun until the Tattoo is completely healed i.e. 2 to 3 weeks because the new Tattoo will burn very fast. After your Tattoo is healed you should always put a sunscreen on your Tattoo when going in the sun because the sun fades the colours away. If you follow these Instructions you should not have any problems with your Tattoo.
