Getting tattooed on holiday - things you should know | The Aftercare Company 0

Holiday tattoos can be beautiful reminders of wonderful times in the sun, and a lovely way to reminisce with your friends, but, they can also be a regrettable souvenir that last a lifetime.  Tattoos may seem like a great idea at the time, when you and your friends are in a euphoric mood, you're loving life, and you want to cement your love for your pals and your holiday destination of choice, but think wisely before you head over to the nearest tattoo studio...

What NOT to say to people with tattoos | Tattoo Aftercare 0

As anyone with more than a few tattoos will know, they’re often a big topic of conversation with friends, family, colleagues, and quite often – complete strangers.  Now I don’t mind the odd innocent question when people are genuinely interested in my tattoos and have harmless queries about them.  That’s absolutely fine.  However, I’ve found since getting quite a lot of visible tattoos, that I’m sometimes faced with strange questions that I’ve either found to be annoying, intrusive, or just downright offensive.  

The Dos and Don’ts of new Tattoos | Best Tattoo Lotion 0

So I recently talked about the Dos and Don’ts of piercings, so I thought it was only right that I posted about the Dos and Don’ts of new tattoos as well!  I’ve already discussed the different food types that we should be eating during the healing stages of tattoos, but what in general should we do, (or not do) after we’ve had our beloved tattoos done?

What food should you eat during the tattoo healing process? 0

I recently read an article about the best foods to after you get a tattoo.  It’s not something I’d ever put too much thought into, and I hadn’t really considered the Science behind it, pre- any of my tattoos.  From the first couple of tattoo experiences I had, I quickly decided that it was best to arm myself with a bottle of Lucozade during the tattoo process (even though I absolutely hate it), and before any new tattoos, I’d try and eat a big meal, something carby and substantial, or if I didn’t have time for this, then I’d at least go and buy a bar of chocolate to ensure I had enough sugar in me to get through the tattoo (although I think this is more of a comfort thing!).  So making sure I didn’t get tattooed on an empty stomach seemed like a logical thing for me to do, but I hadn’t ever considered what I should be eating after being tattooed, and until now, I never knew the importance of eating the right kind of foods, post-tattoo.

Dermalize Pro - The perfect aftercare solution is here! | Buy Tattoo Aftercare Online 0

For many, tattoo aftercare can be a bit of a minefield.  With so many different brands, and types of tattoo aftercare available, it can all be a little overwhelming when trying to decide what's the best product when it comes to the healing of your new tattoo, especially when tattoo artists have conflicting opinions on which product you should use.  

For those wanting to buy tattoo aftercare online, we have an excellent range of the most popular and widely used aftercare products available, and one that I'm particularly fond of is Dermalize Pro.  We've very recently started stocking this product, however I've known about Dermalize Pro for quite some time now, and I've heard so many testimonials, not just from the people who've had the tattoos, but from the tattoo artists themselves.  

Tattoo's aren't 'cool' anymore? | Tattoo Aftercare Wholesale 0

I came across an article recently in The Telegraph titled 'Rethinking Ink: How Tattoos Lost their Cool' and I found myself thinking, tattoos have lost their 'cool'?! I read the article and there were just a few things in it that I disagreed with so I thought I would discuss it! As a company that sells tattoo aftercare wholesale, it's an interesting topic of discussion, whether these tattoos we spend time caring for are 'cool' or not, as the article puts it.
