Aftercare & Touch-Ups
Following your aftercare instructions is extremely important to help your tattoo heal beautifully and look its best. Some light fading or fallout during the healing process is completely normal and can be corrected with a quick touch-up.
Tattoos are typically fully healed at 6 weeks. If at that point you feel your tattoo needs a touch-up, you can review our touch up policy and submit a request form here.
You have one year from your appointment date to schedule your free touch-up.
