Essential Tattoo and Piercing Aftercare Rules

Following standard hygiene practices protects your investment and ensures your body heals safely. Here are a few golden rules every client should remember:

  • Always Wash Hands First: Never touch a fresh tattoo or body piercing with unwashed hands.
  • Avoid Submerging in Water: Stay out of swimming pools, hot tubs, lakes, and oceans until your skin is fully closed and healed.
  • Use Fresh & Personal Products: Never share aftercare products with others. Always use your own clean, mild unscented soaps, fresh saline solution, and dedicated light moisturizers.
  • Do Not Pick or Scratch: Allow flaking skin or minor crusts to detach naturally during daily cleanings.

All procedure protocols at our studio align with the health and safety regulations mandated by Ontario Public Health Standards. Although our staff provides expert advice, we are not licensed physicians. If you suspect an infection or experience severe prolonged swelling, seek immediate advice from a qualified medical provider.
