What to Include in a Professional Tattoo Aftercare Kit

Tattoo artists have always known that aftercare can make or break the final look of a tattoo. A perfect line and flawless shading don’t matter if a client goes home and washes with the wrong soap or uses petroleum products that clog pores. That’s why more shops are assembling complete aftercare kits for their clients.

So, what should go inside a professional aftercare kit? At minimum:

• Instructions — clear, simple, and shop-branded.

• Bandages — for immediate post-session protection.

• Healing ointment — usually a natural, breathable balm.

• Tattoo soap — the daily essential every client needs.

The soap is the most overlooked item, yet it’s the most used. Clients wash their tattoos multiple times a day during the first week, and if they’re left to figure it out themselves, many grab harsh antibacterial washes or fragranced body soaps.

This is where Banger Bars shine. Small enough to fit in any kit, individually wrapped for a professional look, and formulated with natural oils, they provide:

• Gentle daily cleansing.

• Reduced peeling and itchiness.

• A moisturized feel that helps tattoos look vibrant.

One artist summed it up best:

“Clients love these bars. Heals tattoos way faster with minimal peeling.”

When clients heal well, they thank the artist. And when artists provide the tools, they reinforce their reputation as professionals who care.
