PIERCING AFTERCARE

  • Do not remove jewelry under any circumstance
  • You may purchase a shorter post once swelling subsides
  • Avoid cleaning with: alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, neosporin, or antibacterial soaps. These products can damage cells and harm the piercing.
  • To clean piercing, we recommend using a saline based hypochlorous spray such as a briotech
  • Spray entry / exit of piercing both morning and night
  • It is not necessary to rotate the jewelry when cleaning
  • Expect redness, swelling, tenderness, itching, and a fluid which may harden to a crust. Please leave this crust alone, it will fall off when ready
  • Avoid trauma such as friction from clothing, vigorous cleaning, and playing with the jewelry. Trauma can cause scar tissue, migration, and prolonged healing
  • Do not submerge your piercing in pools, lakes, oceans, or jacuzzis for one month
  • Please feel free to call either of our locations with any questions

TATTOO AFTERCARE

  • After removing bandage, wash your new tattoo with unscented liquid soap. Make sure all plasma and fluid is removed thoroughly.

  • After the first 36 hours start applying a small amount of unscented lotion (Aveeno, Lubriderm, Curel, etc.) . Do this 2-3 times daily until your tattoo is healed.
