Tattoo Aftercare Guide – Expert Tips for a Perfect Tattoo Healing Process

🌴 Visiting Vietnam and Thinking of Getting a Tattoo?

Vietnam is full of adventures—swimming, island hopping, beaches, and long walks under the sun. While all these activities are amazing, they might not be ideal right after getting a fresh tattoo.

💡 Our tip for travelers:
If you're planning to swim, sunbathe, or join outdoor tours, it’s best to get your tattoo toward the end of your trip. This allows your tattoo to heal properly without the risk of sun exposure, sea water, or sweat-related irritation.

🧼 What You Can Expect at H2M Tattoo Studio

At H2M Tattoo Studio, we care deeply about how your tattoo heals—especially while you’re still traveling.

✅ After your session, our artists will:

  • Clean your tattoo carefully

  • Apply a high-quality tattoo healing cream

  • Wrap your tattoo using either a professional protective film or medical-grade bandage, depending on the area and style

  • Give you a free aftercare kit so you can continue taking care of your tattoo on the go

✅ What You SHOULD DO After Getting a Tattoo

1. Wash Gently

After 2–4 hours, gently clean your tattoo with lukewarm water and mild, fragrance-free soap. Dry it using a paper towel.

2. Use the Healing Cream Provided by H2M

Apply the cream 2–3 times a day in a thin layer. It’s safe, non-sticky, and perfect for sensitive tattooed skin.

3. Wear Loose Clothing

Let your tattoo breathe. Avoid tight outfits that might rub and irritate the area.

4. Eat Well and Stay Hydrated

Healthy skin heals faster! Eat balanced meals and drink lots of water.

✖️ Don’t Swim or Soak

Avoid swimming in pools, the ocean, or taking long baths for at least 2 weeks after getting tattooed.

✖️ No Sunbathing

Keep your tattoo out of direct sunlight. UV rays can fade your ink before it’s even healed.

✖️ Don’t Scratch or Peel

Itching is normal, but resist scratching. Let scabs fall off naturally.
