How to prepare your skin for a tattoo.

Hydrate
There are a lot of ways to get your skin ready for a new tattoo!
The most important one is to make sure you are hydrated. In the weeks leading up to your appointment, make sure you drink enough water.

Moisturizer
Using moisturizer is a great way to get your skin soft and supple. Start using it in the weeks leading up to your appointment as well.
Do make sure to stop using it the day before your tattoo appointment. If you use it too close to your appointment the skin can become a bit spongy. 

Don’t
Do not drink alcohol or do drugs the day before or the day of your appointment.
It greatly affects your skin and will negatively impact the result of your tattoo.
