How to care for
your new tattoo has been a subject of debate in the tattoo community
for many years. Tattoo artists have had to recommend a variety of
products available from your local drug store. These products were
developed to prevent cuts, burns, scrapes and abrasions from getting
infected and not for the healing of a new tattoo. The majority of
these products contain petroleum or lanolin which when applied to a
new tattoo can clog skin pores and actually delay your body's healing
process. A large number of people have allergic reactions to these
products and application to a new tattoo can cause skin reactions
leading to loss of ink and permanent damage to your tattoo. Tattoo Goo
contains no petroleum and no lanolin.
The purpose of
Tattoo Goo from the beginning was to develop a product that would
provide the best available aftercare for your new tattoo. We have
worked with physicians, dermatologists, numerous tattoo artists and
collectors to develop a product exclusively for the treatment of new
tattoos. We have taken nine different herbs, oils and vitamins that
are known for their natural healing properties and combined them with
an infection-inhibiting antibiotic to create a product specifically
designed for the treatment of new tattoos. Tattoo Goo has been used on
thousands of new tattoos with the same results time after time, no
negative reactions, no infections, with outstanding results on all
work treated with Tattoo Goo.
Tattoo Goo is the
best product available for the treatment of your new tattoo. Unlike
other commercially available products Tattoo Goo actively supports the
tattoo community. Tattoo Goo is sold only by your professional tattoo
artist and will never be available at your local drug
store.
What is Tattoo
Goo?
Tattoo Goo aftercare products are a
combination of vitamins, herbs, and other ingredients developed
especially to aid your body in the healing of a new tattoo. The
majority of products currently used for the aftercare of new tattoos
were designed to prevent infection in cuts, burns and scrapes, not for
healing and aftercare of new tattoos. Tattoo Goo aftercare products
are gentle enough for
everyday use and can be used as a moisturizer to enhance the color of
your tattoo
even after it has healed.
Can I share my can or tube of Tattoo Goo with
others?
ABSOLUTELY NOT! To prevent cross contamination, NO aftercare products
should ever be shared. We recommend washing your hands thoroughly with
an antibacterial soap before applying
aftercare.
Can Tattoo Goo aftercare products be used for piercing
care?
NO .... Tattoos and piercings are different types of wounds. Tattoo
