Aftercare
Here are some tips for using an adhesive bandage for tattoo aftercare:
Application
Cut a piece of the bandage to fit the tattoo, then apply it with light pressure from the center to the edges. Avoid stretching the bandage.
Duration
Leave the bandage on for 4–7 days, as recommended by your artist. You can apply a second or third bandage if needed, but don't wear it for more than one week.
Removal
Gently peel the bandage back over itself while under warm running water. Avoid pulling the bandage upwards.
Washing
After removing the bandage, wash the tattoo with unscented soap and warm water.
Lotion
Use unscented lotion for the remainder of the healing process.
Adhesive Derm type Shield bandages are made of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and polyurethane. They are designed to protect tattoos from dirt, bacteria, germs, and abrasion, while allowing the tattoo to breathe and heal naturally.
Cancellation Policy:
The deposit is non-refundable in the event of cancellation without rescheduling. You are permitted to reschedule your appointment one time, provided that the request to reschedule is made no less than 24 hours prior to the originally scheduled appointment. Should you attempt to reschedule within 24 hours of the appointment, an additional deposit will be required, increasing the total deposit amount to $200. However, your initial deposit will remain applicable if rescheduling occurs in accordance with these terms.
Deposits:
To secure a tattoo appointment, a non-refundable deposit of $100 is required via Cash App, Venmo, Zelle, or Chime. This deposit is not a fee; it will be applied to your total tattoo cost. The remaining balance will be due at the end of your session. For example, for a $600 tattoo with a $100 deposit, the remaining balance of $500 will be due after your session.
For deposits, I recommend using mobile applications such as Venmo, Cash App, Zelle, or Chime (please refer to the deposit information for details). I will prepare your design the evening prior to your appointment, as well as on the morning of, allowing you to request changes up to 24 hours in advance. Additionally, it is preferable to arrive slightly late rather than too early, as I prioritize everyone’s safety during their journey to the shop. If you anticipate being more than 20 minutes late, please feel free to text or call the shop.
