Sessions vary from 3-6 hours, with a 3 hour minimum.
What can I do to prepare for my tattoo session?
Getting a good night's sleep is one of the best things to prepare your body and mind for your sessions. Also, if your doctor permits, take ibuprofen before your tattoo session begins.
Is there a way to know exactly how many hours and sessions will my tattoo take?
The approximate number of sessions and hours per tattoo varies on the individual piece, size, and placement.
What is the proper aftercare for my tattoo?
Leave your tattoo wrapped for the first 24 hours. Afterwards, carefully remove the wrapping and shower. Using a fragrance free soap, gently clean using circular motions on your fresh tattoo. Afterwards, either air dry for 5-10 minutes or pat dry with a fresh paper towel. Keep moisturized using Lubriderm, coconut oil, or a mixture of the two. Apply moisturizer twice daily for the first 2 weeks, and then once daily for maintenance there after.
