Your Tattoo Aftercare Routine, Without The Faff
A tattoo aftercare routine should be doable on a tired Wednesday morning, not a 12-step ritual that gets skipped by day three. The Dr Pickles approach is two products, twice a day, for about two weeks. Wash with the foam wash, pat dry with a clean towel, apply a thin layer of balm or gel.
That's the whole thing. The simplicity is the point. Most tattoo issues during a heal trace back to people overdoing it — too much balm, too many washes, too many random products from the bathroom cupboard. Pick the two Dr Pickles products that suit you, repeat morning and evening, and let the skin do the rest.
