Remove your bandage after 3-4 hours and wash gently with mild (fragrance free/sensitive skin) soap. Use your clean hands to wash your tattoo, rather than anything abrasive like a washcloth or loofah.

Allow tattoo to air dry (you can pat it with a clean paper towel to help it along) and leave your new tattoo alone the rest of the night and the following day.

After a full day, start applying Aquaphor to your tattoo once or twice a day (make sure your hands are clean). A light amount like you are putting on some lotion is sufficient. After 3-5 days you can switch to an unscented lotion, or continue using the Aquaphor.

Be sure not to itch, scratch or pick at you new tattoo. Do not submerge it in any water until it is fully healed (~3weeks or so) and avoid harsh sun exposure. Make sure to stay well hydrated while your tattoo is healing. Skincare is tattoo care.
