Fine Line Tattoo
Aftercare
You’ve got your gorgeous new tattoo — now it’s time to take care of it so it heals beautifully and lasts a lifetime. Good aftercare is just as important as the tattoo itself, especially for delicate fine line tattoos.
Looking after your new tattoo is just as important as getting it done. Proper tattoo aftercare in Bradford helps your fine line tattoo heal safely, keeps the details sharp, and protects it long-term. Follow the steps below for the best results.
First Day After Getting Inked
-
Your tattoo will be wrapped before you leave the studio. Keep this on for the time advised (usually a few hours).
-
Wash your hands before touching your tattoo.
-
Gently wash the area with lukewarm water and fragrance-free soap, then pat dry with a clean towel.
Healing Process
-
Apply a thin layer of fragrance-free moisturiser or ointment (I’ll recommend a suitable brand).
-
Avoid soaking the tattoo — no swimming, baths, hot tubs, or long showers.
-
Don’t pick or scratch at scabs or peeling skin.
-
Keep your tattoo out of direct sunlight and avoid sunbeds completely.
Special Care Tips
-
Once healed, keep your tattoo protected with SPF to prevent fading.
-
Moisturise regularly to keep your skin healthy and your fine line tattoo crisp.
