There are many things that people do after getting a tattoo. They take care of their skin, apply numbing cream to avoid sensation, and heal the tattoo. But there are some things that one needs to do before getting a tattoo. It is very important to prepare your skin before getting a tattoo. Doing some things before getting a tattoo is equally important as aftercare. Getting a tattoo is a permanent thing and requires some preparation for getting it done right. You need to make your mind and body ready for it. 

Here are the things you need to do before getting inked.

Things to do a few weeks ago before your session?

There are certain things you need to do before getting a tattoo. 

Getting a tattoo artist

The first and most important thing to do is get yourself a tattoo artist. If you have finally decided to get your dream tattoo, it is now time to book your appointment with the tattoo artist. Make sure that you have seen his work before. You may read the reviews or get some feedback from people who have already gotten a tattoo from the tattoo artist. 

You may get some recommendations from your friends or relatives or browse the internet. You may also check the Instagram pages of the tattoo artist to get to know their work more closely. If you are having a tattoo for the first time, it is important for you to know about the artist’s style and personality. After considering all these factors, find your best tattoo artist.

Book an appointment.

Once you have decided on your tattoo artist, you need to book your slot with them. You may interact with the artist and talk about the tattoo design you are looking for. This will enable you both to know more about each other. 

Things to do a few days before your session

Booking an artist and choosing a design is not the only task you need to do. There are certain things that you need to do before getting a tattoo.

Be hydrated

It is very important to drink a lot of water a few days before your session. This will keep your skin hydrated.  It is important to drink enough water at least one week before your session. 

Clean the place where you want to get a tattoo.

To ensure that the tattoo design is perfect, the tattoo artist needs the tattoo site to be clean. It is important that you clean that place a few days before your session. Don’t shave or wax your skin just one day before the session or on the same day because this will make your skin sensitive. You need to keep a gap of at least 3-5 days between the session and the day you shave. 

Shaving your skin just before or on the same day of your session will make your skin sensitive, and your session may become more painful. Hence, it is always advisable to do it a few days before your session. 

Exfoliating the skin

Another thing you need to do is exfoliate your skin. This will increase your blood flow and clear your pores. It will better prepare the skin for getting the tattoo. It will help you get a better tattoo and make the healing process faster. 

Moisturizing the skin

After exfoliating, it is very important to moisturize your skin. Make sure that you moisturize your skin two times a day before your session. Otherwise, your skin may become dry, which is not good for getting a tattoo. Especially during the winter, moisturizing becomes even more important. Don’t use a moisturizer that has alcohol, as it will make your skin dry more easily. Do it daily twice before the first 5–6 days of your session. This will make your skin healthier and better prepared for getting inked. However, you need to avoid this on the day of your session. 

Things to do before the day of your session

Getting some rest

It is important to get a good night’s sleep and enough rest before your session. This will make your body fresh and prepared for the day. Because if you do not get a good night’s sleep, you may not be active during your session, which will not make a good impression on the tattoo artist, and you may not have a good time. Although the tattoo may look good, your skin will not be prepared and will get more stressed. Hence, getting good sleep before a session is very important. So, get enough rest and at least 8–9 hours of sleep before your session. 

Don’t drink alcohol.

You need to avoid alcohol before the day of your session. Alcohol will make your blood thin and prevent blood clotting. Also, alcohol can make your skin dry. So, if you don’t want a painful session, it is always advisable to avoid alcohol 24 to 48 hours before your session.

Getting a tattoo when you are drunk is always a bad idea. 

Things to do on the day of your session

  • You need to surely shower on the day of your session because, after getting a tattoo, it might be tricky to shower. This is because you need to make sure that you don’t let water touch the place of your tattoo.
  • Another thing to make sure of is that you should eat enough food to be energetic and have a good session. However, don’t overeat.
  • Another thing to make sure of is that you dress comfortably so that you don’t feel any kind of discomfort during the session.
  • If you are pain-intolerant, you may use numbing cream on the area. Tattoo numbing cream will help you have a painless and comfortable tattoo session. 
  • Make sure that the numbing cream for the skin is applied before 2-3 hours and that it suits your skin. Don’t forget to check the ingredients, as they are of different types. 

These are some of the things that will prepare your body for the session and make it enjoyable and memorable for you. This will help you get your dream tattoo in the best way possible.
