Preparation
 

Before your tattoo you can prepare your skin and your body to ensure the best experience and results. One week prior to your tattoo, it is helpful to do some gentle exfoliation using a sugar scrub or similar product on the area that will be tattooed to remove some of the dry skin. Lotion the area every day one week prior to the tattoo appointment (but not the day of). Do not shave unless you are positive you can do so without creating razor burn. I recommend to eat a large meal before you come get tattooed and bring some small snacks for long sessions. Depending on the area you are getting tattooed, you may need to purchase special clothing so I can access that part of your body easily. Wear clothing to the appointment that you don’t mind getting Ink on.
