Tattoo aftercare is important in preventing infection, scarring and ink rejection. Recommended products are sold at the studio. Aftercare Instructions (Non-Adhesive Bandage) If using a standard, non-adhesive bandage, remove bandage within 2-3 hours post-procedure. Once bandage is removed, wash the tattoo 2-3 times per day with an antibacterial, fragrance-free soap. We recommend H2Ocean or Dr. Bronners. If needed, apply a very thin layer of ointment 1-2 times daily for the first 1-3 days post-procedure. We recommend H2Ocean’s Aquatat. Once your tattoo starts feeling dry, begins flaking or peeling, STOP using the ointment and begin using a water-based, fragrance-free lotion. We recommend H2Ocean or Cetaphil. Keep your tattoo out of salt water, rivers, lakes, bathes, hot tubs or other pools, sun and chlorine for 2 weeks post-procedure. (Do not soak.) DO NOT scratch, pick or peel your tattoo. If you have any questions stop by or text/email/call Paintbrush Tattoo. Saniderm Instructions (Saniderm is the “Second Skin” clear bandage adhesive) Leave Saniderm on for 4 days. It is normal to see build up under bandage. On the fifth day peel bandage off very slowly under warm running water, making sure to do so with clean hands. Gently wash your tattoo using unscented antibacterial soap, then pat your tattoo dry with a paper towel. We recommend H2Ocean or Dr. Bronnors. Once your tattoo dries and begins to peel, moisturize your tattoo 2-3 times a day with unscented lotion. We recommend H2Ocean or Cetaphil. Keep your tattoo out of salt water, rivers, lakes, bathes, hot tubs or other pools, sun and chlorine for 2 weeks post procedure. (No soaking.) DO NOT scratch, pick or peel your tattoo. If you have any questions stop by or text/email/call Paintbrush Tattoo.

Unless the client wants matching tattoos, custom drawings will not be repeated after being tattooed. This means if you book a custom piece, the drawing will not be used elsewhere. Because of the volume of Teton tattoo requests we receive, all Teton tattoos are considered repeatable flash, unless you request a very specific variation. There are only so many ways to reinvent the wheel!

Paintbrush Tattoo encourages you to book a consultation and let a trained artist brainstorm with you.

A consultation is a discussion with the artist. Let’s chat, brainstorm, and discuss tattoos at the studio. Consultations take 15-30 minutes. If you have an idea in mind, bring reference photos or print outs. Don’t have any ideas? No worries! Come in and brainstorm with the artist. At the consult, we will discuss design, pre-care and after-care instructions, and book the tattoo appointment.

Instagram is the best way to keep up with new designs. We do not offer repeatable flash, however, we sometimes have drawings ready to be claimed.

Flash designs are claimed quick, so don't hesitate to send us a message to make the design yours. Our studio also has a binder of design printouts. You are welcome to stop by the studio and take a look. Keep in mind, our priority is to the client getting tattooed and our door may be closed.
