One of the worst things you can do to a new tattoo is get it wet. Do not shower for at least 24 hours. Don't soak in anything -- a bath, hot tub, lake, pond or pool -- until your tattoo is fully healed. Avoid saunas and steam rooms as well.
After washing your tattoo gently pat it dry with a clean towel and DO NOT apply any ointments. Once dried, immediately apply another fresh dressing using new cling-film. This process should be repeated at least 3 times per day for 2 to 3 days after you have been tattooed.
