Frequently Asked Questions

  • What should I eat or drink before a tattoo session?

    Having a balanced meal and plenty of water before your appointment keeps your blood sugar steady and prevents light-headedness. Avoid alcohol or caffeine on the day, as both can thin your blood and make you more sensitive. Bringing a water bottle or snack for longer sessions helps maintain energy levels. Staying nourished supports focus and a smoother tattooing experience overall.

  • How do I keep a tattoo looking fresh long term?

    Long-term tattoo care comes down to protection and moisture. Daily sunscreen use prevents fading and discolouration from UV rays. Keeping your skin hydrated with gentle, fragrance-free lotion maintains elasticity and colour vibrancy. Avoid tanning oils, harsh scrubs and prolonged sunbathing. Over time, minor touch-ups can revive details and keep your design looking as crisp and rich as the day it was done.

  • Is it normal for a tattoo to feel raised or itchy months later?

    It’s not uncommon for healed tattoos to occasionally feel slightly raised or itchy, especially with temperature changes or mild skin irritation. This happens when the body’s collagen reacts beneath the inked area. Gently moisturising usually helps settle it. Persistent or inflamed patches should be checked by a healthcare professional, as they might indicate a skin sensitivity rather than a tattoo issue.
