Being prepared for your tattoo is just as important as taking care of it after it's done!
Below are a few easy to do things to prepare your skin and body for your upcoming appointment.
Drink lots of water! Hydration is key, and not only do we need water to stay alive, it also helps your skin get ready for your new tattoo. Dry skin sucks for you and for us to tattoo!
Moisturize! Same as above, happy skin makes a happy tattoo. It makes our job easier and helps your healing process be as "smooth" as possible.
Get your dream on! Yep, sleep is huge! You can't run a marathon on 2 hours of sleep, and getting a tattoo when your body isn't rested will make it hard for you to focus and relax through the procedure.
Snack time! Come to your appointment fueled and ready to go! No, a piece of toast isn't enough. Get a big, healthy breakfast, and you'll be surprised at how tough your body will be when experiencing some tattoo time!
Relax. We know it can be stressful and nerve-racking before your appointment. We're here to help! Please reach out with any questions or concerns beforehand. We're here to make great tattoos and great experiences, so chill out and trust the process!
