How Aftercare Reduces Touch-Ups
Touch-ups are part of the tattoo process, but too many can be avoided with better aftercare. For artists, minimizing unnecessary touch-ups saves time, protects your portfolio, and keeps clients happier.
Why Poor Healing Leads to Touch-Ups
-
Over-drying or peeling can fade ink prematurely.
-
Clients using harsh soaps or no care at all lose detail.
-
Infections or irritation damage your finished work.
Aftercare Kits Reduce Risk
By sending clients home with soap, balm, and instructions, you:
-
Guide them through proper healing.
-
Prevent common mistakes.
-
Ensure your tattoos look closer to your original vision.
