HOW TO APPLY(REPLACING THE BANDAGE):

FIRST, CLEAN THE AREA WITH SOAP AND WATER, PAT DRY.

THIS BANDAGE CAN BE CUT INTO SECTIONS AND LAYERED

WHITE PAPER NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FIRST, THIS EXPOSES THE ADHESIVE SIDE

PLACE THE BANDAGE SO IT COVERS MORE AREA THAN THE TATTOO, THERE SHOULD BE ABOUT A 1/2” BETWEEN THE END OF THE BANDAGE AND YOUR TATTOO

SMOOTH IT DOWN, AIR BUBBLES WILL WORK THEMSELVES OUT

REMOVE THE GRID CLEAR PAPER WITH THE YELLOW ARROWS POINTING TO THE SEAM, ONCE THAT LAYER IS OFF , IF NEEDED, YOU CAN NOW LAY ANOTHER PIECE TO OVERLAP

HOW TO REMOVE :

MAKE SURE TO DO THIS UNDER RUNNING WATER GET SOAP UNDERNEATH A CORNER, KEEP WORKING ACROSS WITH THE SOAP, PEELING THE BANDAGE OFF SLOWLY THE SOAP HELPS TO GET THE ADHESIVE OFF

WASH THE TATTOO WITH A FRAGRANCE FREE SOAP RINSE WELL

** IF YOU ARE REPLACING THE BANDAGE**DO NOT PUT ANYTHING ON THE TATTOO BEFORE YOU PUT ON THE BANDAGE

IF ITS A HARD TO REACH PLACE HAVE A PARTNER OR FRIEND HELP YOU

YOU CAN CUT TO DESIRED SIZE, MAKE SURE THERE IS A GOOD AMOUNT OF SPACE BETWEEN THE EDGE OF THE BANDAGE AND THE TATTOO

PEEL OFF WHITE PAPER, PLACE BANDAGE DOWN.

PRESS FIRMLY AND SMOOTH OUT, REMOVE THE PLASTIC BARRIER WITH THE YELLOW ARROWS YOU CAN LAYER ON TOP, BUT ONLY AFTER YOU HAVE REMOVED THE PLASTIC BARRIER

AIR BUBBLES HAPPEN AND USUALLY WORK THEMSELVES OUT MOST IMPORTANT IS TO MAKE SURE THE BANDAGE STAYS IN PLACE, NO AIR CANALS, OR TINY PARTS OF THE TATTOO STICKING OUTSIDE THE BANDAGE

WEAR FOR 3-5 DAYS, AFTER THAT GO RIGHT TO A PLAIN NON SCENTED LOTION( I HAVE RECOMMENDATIONS LISTED)

DO NOT PUT A NEW BANDAGE OVER THE OLD BANDAGE, IT DOES NOT WORK LIKE THAT! IF THE OLD BANDAGE SHIFTS OR PEELS UP, REPLACE IT!

AQUAPHOR IS NOT LOTION!!

DO NOT USE AQUAPHOR!!!

DO NOT USE OINTMENTS,SALVES ,OILS OR BALMS

THESE ARE TOO THICK AND WILL CAUSE YOUR TATTOO TO GET FUZZY LOOKING OR LOSE COLOR!

ONLY PLAIN LOTION

DO NOT PICK AT IT, SUBMERGE IT IN WATER, EXPOSE IT TO PROLONGED SUN IN THE FIRST MONTH

SHEA BUTTER,COCOA BUTTER,EUCERIN, CETAPHIL…ANYTHING NON-SCENTED

DO NOT OVER USE LOTION,ONE TO TWO TIMES A DAY AND JUST ENOUGH TO MOISTURIZE THE AREA(AROUND THE SIZE OF A QUARTER AT MOST, OBV. LARGER TATTOOS WILL NEED A BIT MORE AND SMALLER LESS)

DO NOT USE:

AQUAPHOR IS NOT LOTION

OILS,OINTMENTS,SALVES

THERE ARE MANY ON THE MARKET.

I SUGGEST GOING TO AMAZON.COM AND FINDING A ROLL OF TRANSPARENT BANDAGE

SOME POPULAR BRANDS ARE :

TEGADERM,DYNAREX,AND SECOND SKIN

YOU CAN ALSO BUY THIS AT A LOCAL PHARMACY BUT THEY ARE PRICEY AND SMALL

IF YOU ARE GETTING SESSION PIECES DONE I DO RECOMMEND BUYING THIS IN CASE IT NEEDS REPLACING MORE THAN ONE TIME

THIS BANDAGE IS ALSO GREAT FOR, CUTS AND BURNS

THERE ARE MANY ON THE MARKET, MOST IMPORTANT TO KNOW IS APPLICATION

CLEANSE YOUR SKIN FIRST IN WARM TO HOT WATER SO YOU CAN OPEN UP YOUR PORES,APPLY A VERY GENEROUS AMOUNT

WRAP IT IN PLASTIC WRAP ABOUT ONE HOUR PRIOR

BRING THE CREAM WITH YOU TO BE USED THROUGHOUT THE TATTOO PROCESS
