FAQ - The Big Day

This is your ultimate guide to prepping for the big day, enjoying the experience and looking after your fresh ink.
 

Preparing for your tattoo

Make sure to drink plenty of water and keep your skin is hydrated

Exfoliate carefully to remove dead skin and prepare the area

Your tattooist will shave the tattoo area for you  but if you prefer to do it youself just be careful to avoid cuts and make sure the area is big enough

Do not get drunk the night before, between the pounding headache and excessive bleeding it's not going  to improve your day.

Enjoy the day

Make sure you have a good breakfast to prep

Bring sugary drinks and sweets to keep your blood sugars up

You will get breaks in longer sessions but we avoid long lunch breaks because its worse to return to a tattoo

The vibe is always chilled so you can sit back and relax or just enjoy your free therapy session with your artist

We do not advise numbing cream but it can be used in some instances, speak to your artist for more info

Caring

Caring for your ink

Keep it simple, water and wipe

Day ONE and TWO: change clingfilm every 3/4 hours, wipe clean with water and a soft cloth, don't worry about overnight it will be fine

Avoid exposure to sun, soaking, excessive contact

Day three: use Jojo's patent tattoo butter to moisturise and keep the skin supple

Continue to use small amounts of butter to moisturise the tattoo until the area feels normal

Avoid over moisturising this can cause blurring
