  • Bleeding, swelling and bruising is normal while piercing is healing.

  • Do not sleep on your new piercing. We recommend piercing pillows if you find you're having trouble sleeping. (we sell these in the studio). 

  • If the jewelry gets knocked or hit, a piercing bump may form (frequently mistaken for a keloid). See image below for piercing bump and irritated piercing protocol. 

  • It is  important to shorten your jewelry bars as soon as the piercing feels healed. (we recommend making an appointment for this service)

  • If you suspect you have an infection, please consult your primary care physician. 

Tiny Tattoo Aftercare

  • Keep provided bandage on the tattoo for 48 hours. (If applicable)

  • Remove bandage with warm soapy water

  • Wash tattoo with warm soapy water 2-3x per day until healed

  • After washing, apply very thin layer of ointment (aquaphor or similar) or unscented body lotion to the tattoo until healed. We want it hydrated but not gooped up. Thinner is better!

  • If you suspect you have an infection, please consult your primary care physician. 

  • Contact us if you feel like you need a touch up! Every tattoo includes 1 complimentary touch up. It is VERY likely your tiny tattoo will require a touch up. Touchups should be done 4-6 weeks after the initial tattoo. (Additional charges may apply for touchups after this time period.)
