Why We Built This

For a decade, brands built their Pro Teams around follower counts. Ten thousand minimum. Fifty thousand preferred. They DM'd someone else. The artists with full books and zero deals never got the call.

We looked at something different. We looked at what you hand your clients at the end of a session. Whether the aftercare protocol you built your reputation on is the right one, not just the one everyone else copied.

Day 1 is not about when you found Banger. It is about the standard you have held for your clients from the beginning. That is the only qualification that matters here.

What this actually is

We built a bar for the moment
no other product was designed for.

Most tattoo care brands are essentially the same product in different packaging. A fragrance. A pump. A bottle that sits on your station and touches every client who comes through. Your client gets a shared pump or a bar of Dove. That was the only option because no one made anything else. Until now.

0.4oz per client. Sealed until use.

Individual bars for a single client, a single session. Nothing shared. Nothing left open on the station.

Cold process. Natural glycerin. Nothing stripped out.

Commercial soap extracts glycerin to sell separately. Cold-process retains it. Every wash delivers what healing skin needs.

Zero antibacterial agents. By design.

Dial. Dove. Most of what artists reach for has antibacterial agents in it. The FDA pulled triclosan and triclocarban from consumer washes in 2016 because the risk to the skin barrier was not worth it. We never put them in.

24 or 72 bars per order. Built for your volume.

$1.39 per client at the 24-pack rate. Priced to run every day without thinking about it.

Artist handing off a Banger Bar to a client

Individually wrapped for the handoff. One bar per client, day one through the full heal.

We are not a full aftercare line. No lotion. No spray. No foam wash. One product, built for one moment: the handoff. The bar format made it possible to do that right. So that is all we make.

Banger Bar ingredients Why the product works

The soap is the hero.
Not the balm.

In 2016 the FDA found zero evidence antibacterial soap works better than plain soap. Antibacterial agents strip the skin microbiome your client needs during the healing window.

Banger is cold-process, zero antibacterial agents. 1,500+ artists updated their recommendation because of it.

VeganParaben-FreeSulfate-FreeCold-ProcessHypoallergenicMade in USA
Worth buying for your clients

Olive Oil (42%)

Rich in oleic acid. Cleanses without stripping. Delivers fatty acids to support barrier function during every wash.

Natural Glycerin

Commercial soaps extract glycerin to sell separately. Cold-process retains it — every wash delivers moisture conventional soaps cannot.

Shea Butter

Rich in vitamins A and E. Supports the skin barrier during healing without clogging pores. Gentle on the most sensitive healing skin.

Sea Buckthorn Oil

The only plant-based source with all four essential omega fatty acids. Supports barrier repair during the critical first days after tattooing.

Day 1 Bar — Featured Ingredient

Omega 7 — found in almost no other plant-based oil — is chosen specifically for what it brings to the healing window. Not a cosmetic filler. A functional ingredient. Zero antibacterial agents. 42% olive oil. Cold-process to retain natural glycerin.

Colby Colquitt, Founder of Banger Tattoo Care
From the Founder

I Did Not Start This Company to Make Another Balm.

That is not where the problem was.

The industry has been building Pro Teams around follower counts for years. Meanwhile the first step of aftercare has not changed in a decade.

The wash.

Artists are doing world-class work. Then sending clients home with antibacterial soap the FDA reviewed in 2016 and found zero evidence of benefit for. Soap that strips the exact bacteria your clients skin needs to heal.

So I stepped out of the ingredient war and built something for that moment. Not to compete over lotion. To fix the foundation. That is why Banger exists.

Colby ColquittFounder and CEO, Banger Tattoo Care
Not a sponsorship. A partnership.

We have never once checked a follower count to decide if an artist belongs here.

We seek artists who use Banger because it works for their clients — not because someone paid them to say so.

Anyone who does the work correctly and cares about their clients belongs here. All tattoos need to heal.

Why Artists Switch

The aftercare recommendation has not changed in a decade. The science has.

2016FDA reviewed antibacterial soap
0Evidence it prevents infection better than plain soap

“There is currently no evidence that over-the-counter antibacterial soaps are better at preventing illness than washing with plain soap and water.”

U.S. Food and Drug Administration, September 2016
The Science

Three reasons 1,500+ artists updated their aftercare recommendation.

01

The FDA Ruling

In September 2016 the FDA banned 19 antibacterial agents including triclosan and triclocarban. No manufacturer could prove they work better than plain soap. The ruling applied directly to the products on most aftercare sheets.

02

The Skin Microbiome

Your skin hosts beneficial bacteria that protect healing wounds. Antibacterial soap does not distinguish between harmful and beneficial bacteria. It disrupts the exact defense system your clients need most during the healing window.

03

The Format Difference

Liquid cleansers strip skin oils at the moment healing skin needs them most. Cold-process bar soap retains natural glycerin and cleanses without stripping. Your clients skin feels like skin after, not like it survived something.

What is in the bar

42% olive oil. Sea buckthorn fruit oil. Zero antibacterial agents. Cold-process.

Common Questions

Everything you need before you subscribe.

When do I qualify, and when does my banner ship?

Order 1 is the subscription order you place today. Order 2 is your next scheduled delivery. We email you after order 1 to collect your details, and your banner ships within 2 to 3 weeks of order 2 confirming.

What goes on my banner?

Your name or @handle exactly as you want it. We collect this via email after your first order.

What goes on my Trusted Artists Map pin?

Your name, city, photo, and a booking link. Goes live after order 2 confirms.

What if I already have one subscription order?

Your spot is locked. Your next subscription order triggers your banner and your map pin. Email us if you have not heard from us.

Can I cancel after I qualify?

Yes. No minimums beyond two orders. Pause, skip, or adjust anytime. Your banner is yours permanently. Your map pin stays active as long as your subscription does. Lapse 90+ days and it is forfeited.

How long is the Founding Artist program open?

We capped it at 100 artists this summer and it filled fast. The requests to get back in didn't stop, so we're reopening it one last time through December 31, 2026. Two orders locks your spot — after that, the Founding Artist title retires and locks for good.

Founding Artist Title.
Closes for Good 12/31.

We hit 100 artists and closed the doors this summer. This is the one and only reopening. Subscribe and complete 2 orders before the window shuts — the title locks in permanently, and it won't come back.
