TATTOO AFTERCARE

Your tattoo is a work of art — treat it with care so it heals clean, smooth, and vibrant. Follow these simple steps for the best results.

STEP 1: PROTECT

  • We’ll apply Hustle Butter Tattoo Aftercare Wrap before you leave the studio.

  • Keep it on for 1–3 days, or as directed by your artist.

  • This breathable wrap protects your tattoo from bacteria while allowing airflow.

  • If it loosens or fluid builds up, gently remove it and move to Step 2.

STEP 2: CLEAN

  • After removing the wrap, wash your hands first.

  • Gently cleanse your tattoo using Hustle Bubbles Antibacterial Foaming Soap or a mild, fragrance-free antibacterial soap.

  • Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry with a clean paper towel — never rub.

STEP 3: MOISTURIZE

  • Apply a thin layer of Hustle Butter Deluxe Tattoo Balm or If you prefer not to use Hustle Butter, apply a thin layer of Aquaphor for the first 3 days then switch to a light, fragrance-free lotion made for sensitive skin.

  • Use just enough to keep the tattoo slightly hydrated — not shiny or greasy.

  • Reapply 1–3 times daily as your tattoo heals.

WHAT TO AVOID

  • No soaking (baths, pools, or hot tubs)

  • No direct sunlight or tanning beds

  • No scratching, picking, or tight clothing rubbing the tattoo

WARNING SIGNS

Contact your artist or a healthcare professional if you notice:

  • Spreading redness or swelling

  • Yellow or green discharge

  • Increasing pain after day 2
