    ⚜Please wash your hands with an antibacterial liquid soap before touching your tattoo. Gently wash your tattoo and pat dry with a clean paper towel.

    ⚜You may see ink or blood when washing your tattoo for the first couple days; this is normal and nothing to be alarmed about.

Note: tattoos on the lower extremities take longer to heal because they’re farther away from your heart.
