Aftercare
We believe in taking extreme care to ensure that the body art we provide is of the highest quality and hygiene, but at the end of the day it’s your responsibility to ensure that the appropriate aftercare measures are taken. This ensures your body art will heal correctly and age beautifully.
Tattoo Aftercare
Thank you for trusting Bunnycorpse with your latest tattoo! Below you’ll find all the needed instructions to ensure your new artwork heals perfectly every time. It is up to you to ensure your tattoos are properly looked after. With the correct care taken, your tattoo can remain beautiful for a lifetime.
Aftercare Instructions
· After 3-5 hours remove the wrap and wash the tattoo immediately with lukewarm water and any mild antiseptic soap (Protex/Dettol/Savlon soap bar, Dove can also be used.)
· Let the tattoo air dry.
· Do not apply any ointments or creams, let the tattoo dry out. The tattoo can be washed daily, but do not let it soak.
· Tattoo aftercare cream can be used after 4-5 days. This is optional, should you choose to apply aftercare lotion, ensure that a thin layer is applied once the tattoo has been washed. This ensures that no bacteria is locked into the tattoo by the lotion.
· Do not pick, scratch or in any way irritate the tattooed area, this includes wearing scratchy
clothing/jewellery.
· Do not expose the tattoo to anything that may cause infections like swimming pools, pets and pet hair or oil based products that can lock in bacteria.
· Keep your tattoo out of the sun and avoid tanning beds. This is good to keep in mind during and after healing. The UV rays will cause your tattoo to fade and age more rapidly with prolonged exposure. Strong sunblock is your friend once the healing is done.
· Your tattoo should heal in 60 days. Consult a physician if any signs or symptoms develop such as the following: persistent redness at the site, green/yellow discharge (foul smelling) and/or fever.
TOUCH UP POLICY: IF a touch up is needed, it can be done after 2 months. Touch ups are R100, Free if done
with a new tattoo.
“Body art that is well taken care of will age elegantly and remain youthful. This also applies to the body it occupies.”
