Here’s what you need to know
Wash hands thoroughly before touching your tattoo while it’s healing.
You may remove the tattoo dressing that you left the studio with when you get home. Wetting the bandage may help remove it if if gives you any resistance.
Wash your tattoo every morning and night. You should also wash throughout the day if it gets dirty. Use common sense. You may use a mild soap. We recommend using Blue Green Foam Soap that we sell in the the studio as it does not require rinsing. Rinse all other soap off with warm water.
Pat the tattoo dry when washing. Never rub it.
Use a hot compress 2-3 minutes every morning and every night. You may use a clean cloth and put under hot tap water and then apply it to your tattoo until it cools. Repeat 2-3 times twice per day for one week.
After you have cleaned your tattoo and used the compress apply an ointment (we recommend Aquatat which we sell in the studio) lightly over the tattoo. If your tattoo looks wet or shiny there is too much ointment applied. Blot with a clean paper towel and rub in what is leftover. Do this three times per day
After 3 days cease using an ointment and switch to a moisturizing lotion. We recommend Ocean Foam which we sell in the studio. Use the moisturizing foam 3 times a day until healed.
Do not re-wrap your tattoo again for any reason.
You may not soak your tattoo for two weeks including but not limited to bath tubs, hot tubs, lakes, rivers, oceans, etc…..
Keep your new tattoo out of direct sunlight for two weeks.
Flaking is common and while the tattoo is fresh you will notice pigment flaking with skin. This is normal.
By using the proper tattoo aftercare products as directed you can decrease the discomfort and the healing time of your new tattoo.
I had a great experience with the piercer, Nana! Very professional yet friendly atmosphere and above all very clean! I got my conch done and she was super knowledgeable of where the best placement not only looks wise but also comfort. I couldn’t be happier with the placement and with the experience as a whole. Will definitely be coming back to see her again!
“BEST Shop, BEST Crew, BEST Overall Experience. I would not go anywhere else for a tattoo, I cannot say enough about the entire process...from design to the tattoo itself and then the follow up afterwards, everyone at ECW truly cares about their craft and want the customer to be happy.”
“The atmosphere inside is welcoming and relaxing – and most importantly CLEAN. I will definitely be back and recommend ECW to anyone in Jax who wants a top-notch body modification.”
I walked in and was immediately impressed. Nicest shop I have ever walked into. I recommend this shop to any and everybody who is into tattoos and piercings. Best piercer and shop in Jacksonville HANDS DOWN!
“When I walked in, I was impressed by how clean the place was. The high tech equipment they have makes me know they take their profession seriously. I would certainly recommend this shop to anyone looking for professional staff and clean environment.
“ECW is the best tattoo shop that I've been in. Everyone at ECW is extremely professional. I highly recommend ECW for anyone that wants a professional tattoo. I will get more tattoos from Patrick the next time I come down from Virginia, even if I need to make a special trip for it.”
"If I could give it an extra star I would. My piercing experience was excellent. James made well informed and instructed me through the entire process, I felt completely comfortable, everything was clean like doctor's office and everyone was extremely professional and I don't think I could go anywhere else now."
“Super clean environment!! Definitely a plus! I waited for maybe two minutes to go back. Before the service was performed James made sure that I was well educated on what to expect from the whole experience. Everything is sterilized right in front of you. The piercing was super fast and they use high quality jewelry!"
