🌿 Jagua Tattoo Aftercare & Process

📋 1. Things You Need to Do

First 2–4 Hours (Gel Still On):

• 🕒 Leave the gel undisturbed for at least 2–4 hours (longer = darker stain).

• 🙌 Keep the area still — no rubbing, scratching, or touching.

• 🌬️ Let the gel dry naturally; avoid smudging on clothes or furniture.
  

After Gel is Dry:

• 🧹 Gently flake or brush off the dried gel (do not wash with soap).

• 🚱 Keep the area dry for 12 more hours after removing the gel.

• 🌙 Sleep carefully — avoid sweating or rubbing on bed sheets.

After 12–24 Hours:

• 💧 You may rinse with water (no soap yet).

• 🧴 Apply a thin layer of gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer.

• 😃 Relax and watch your tattoo darken over the next 1–2 days.

🚫 2. Things to Avoid (0–48 Hours)

• 🚿 No long showers or swimming — brief rinse only after 12 hours.

• 🧽 No scrubbing, exfoliating, or soap on the area.

• 🏋️ No heavy sweating, gym, or saunas for 24 hours.

• ☀️ Avoid sun exposure — UV can lighten the stain.

• 👕 Avoid tight clothing or friction over the design.

⚠️ 3. Watch for ComplicationsContact your artist if you see:

• Severe itching, rash, or swelling (possible allergy).

• Redness spreading beyond the tattoo area.

• Blistering or burning sensation.

✅ 4. Development Timeline

• Hours 0–12: Gel dries, skin feels tight.

• Hours 12–24: Stain is very light or invisible — normal!

• Day 2: Color darkens to deep blue-black.

• Days 3–7: Richest color — enjoy your tattoo!

• Days 8–14: Tattoo slowly fades as skin exfoliates.
