1. Bandage should stay on for at least two hours.
2. Remove bandage, rinse gently with cold water and blot dry.

4. Keep fresh and open to the air. Do not bandage.
5. For the first two nights, cover tattoo with a damp non-stick bandage before going to bed. This will keep tattoo from bleeding on clothes or sheets.

7. For the first month, avoid too much exposure to the sun and tanning beds.
8. Do not pick or scratch scabs.
