Should I Shower Before My Tattoo Appointment?

Answered by Sude ErdemTattoo artist in Los Angeles

Yes. Please come to your appointment with clean skin. A normal shower before the session is enough.

Avoid applying heavy creams, oils, body butter, perfume, or anything else directly on the tattoo area afterward. Clean, untreated skin is the easiest and safest surface for me to prepare before we start.
