What Should Be in a Tattoo Aftercare Kit?

Not all aftercare kits are created equal. Some are packed with extras you won’t need, while others skip the basics. Whether you’re an artist creating kits for clients or a collector caring for your first tattoo, here’s what to look for — and why Banger Aftercare Kits get it right.

Essentials Every Kit Should Have

  1. Tattoo-safe soap
    The foundation of aftercare. Skip harsh body washes and antibacterial soaps. Use fragrance-free, moisturizing options like Banger Bars.

  2. Optional balm or moisturizer
    Comforts skin if it feels dry or tight.

  3. Clear instructions
    Clients need simple steps they can actually follow.

Nice-to-Haves (But Not Always Necessary)

  • Bandage or wrap for immediate use.

  • Sunscreen for long-term tattoo protection.

  • Stickers or small extras for shop branding.

Why Banger Kits Stand Out

  • Soap-first design: Every kit includes Banger Bars, the product clients use most.

  • No wasted extras: Sized for the aftercare period, nothing more.

  • Artist + client balance: Affordable bulk options for shops, accessible single kits for collectors.
