How Often Should You Wash a New Tattoo?

Proper aftercare is essential for healing a new tattoo. Washing frequency, technique, and product choice play a crucial role in avoiding complications. Here, QM Makeup answers the most common questions.

1. How Many Times a Day Should I Wash My New Tattoo?

Wash your new tattoo 2-3 times a day for the first week. This helps remove excess plasma, ink, and bacteria, minimizing infection risks and promoting optimal healing.

2. What Type of Soap Should Be Used on a New Tattoo?

Select a mild, unscented, antibacterial soap for tattoo aftercare. Harsh chemicals or fragrances can irritate sensitive skin and compromise the tattoo's appearance.

3. Can I Overwash My Tattoo?

Yes, washing too frequently can dry out the skin and delay healing. Stick to the recommended 2-3 times per day, and gently pat the area dry with a clean towel.

4. When Should I Start Washing My New Tattoo?

Begin cleaning 2-3 hours after bandage removal. Gently wash off plasma and ointment residue, then apply a suitable aftercare product recommended by your artist.

5. How Long Should I Continue Washing My Tattoo Regularly?

Wash your tattoo regularly for about two weeks, or until fully healed. After this period, resume your normal hygiene routine while moisturizing to maintain skin health and color vibrancy.

By following these guidelines, you ensure your new tattoo remains healthy and vibrant. For semi-permanent makeup aftercare, always consult your artist for tailored advice.

Does the neutralizer contain the ingredient “Sodium Bromate” ?

Yes. The active ingredient of the neutralizer is an oxidant agent, which reconnects the disulfide bonds in the eyelashes that were broken by the perming lotion. Commonly used oxidants are sodium bromate and hydrogen peroxide. Sodium bromate works best at a neutral pH value, and can achieve a firm, elastic styling effect.
