TATTOO AFTERCAREIf bandaged, remove after 1 hour. Wash with warm, soapy water and bare hand. No need to re-bandage.
Apply ointment (Bacitracin, Tattoo Goo or a triple anti-biotic) 3 - 5 times daily until healed (approx. 7 - 14 days). The reason you are applying ointment is to prevent your tattoo from drying out or scabbing.
Clean your tattoo daily with bare hand and warm, soapy water, rinse soap off well. This works best while showering, although avoid direct shower spray. Do not soak your tattoo in any type of water including hot tubs, bath tubs, swimming pools, lakes or saunas. If your tattoo is in an area that you regularly shave, avoid doing so for at least 2 - 3 weeks.
No direct exposure to sunlight or tanning beds while tattoo is healing. After tattoo is completely healed use a high spf sunblock any time it will be exposed to uv rays to prevent tattoo damage: fading, blurring, etc.
Do not pick or scratch tattoo while it is healing.
Toward the end of the healing process your tattoo may "peel" (colored flakes coming off), this is normal. Do not help the flakes off.
Consult a health care professional at first sign of infection. Signs of infection may or may not include: redness, pain and tenderness, swelling, and warmth of affected area. These signs may or may not also be a normal reaction to having your body tattooed.
Only a medical professional can determine if you have an infection.

PIERCING AFTERCARENever use peroxide or alcohol on your piercing.What Is Normal:
· Initially you may experience localized bleeding, swelling, bruising and tenderness.
· During healing you may experience discoloration, itching, secretion of a whitish/yellowish fluid (this is not pus) that will form crust on the jewelry.
· A piercing may seem healed before healing is complete, this is because piercings heal from the outside in. Keep cleaning throughout the entire healing process.
· Healed piercings can shrink or close in minutes, even after having been there for years.What to Avoid:
· Avoid friction from clothing, excessive motion of area, playing with the piercing and vigorous cleaning.
· Avoid over cleaning.

· Unless there is a problem with your jewelry’s size or material, leave it in place for the entire healing time.
· Stay healthy. Get enough sleep, eat right and it will be easier for your piercing to heal.

About
Kelli, owner/artist, established Prizm Tattoo in 1997 in the small town of Mora, Minnesota. At that time, there were few tattoo shops and even fewer female artists and it was very rare for a female to own a tattoo shop. It was an exciting venture to start and now, more then two decades later the fun still continues! Terri, artist/piercer, joined the team in 2005 and is an awesome asset to the shop. Kelli & Terri are well rounded as artists and do anything from small tattoos to cover ups to very large scale work. They also are very customer-orientated and are aware that listening and advising a client is the first step to a good tattoo. The shop has a very relaxed atmosphere and is welcoming.Appointments are required and same day appointments can be accommodated at times.
