NEROS TATTOO CLIENT GUIDE
Everything you need before and after your session.
Before Your Appointment
Eat well and get plenty of rest the night before.
Avoid alcohol, drugs, and blood thinners for 24 hours before your session (aspirin, Marcumar, energy drinks).
Limit yourself to one cup of coffee or black tea.
No sunburn on the area to be tattooed.
Exfoliate the area a few days beforehand with a gentle scrub.
Moisturize your skin in the days leading up — especially dry areas like hands, elbows, knees, and ankles.
On the Day
Wear comfortable clothing that gives easy access to the tattoo area.
Bring cash for the remaining balance.
Please come alone.
This helps me stay fully focused while working.
You Cannot Be Tattooed If
You've taken antibiotics or cortisone in the 3–5 days before or after your appointment.
You are pregnant, or recently gave birth and are still in recovery.
You've had a vaccination in the last 48 hours.
You have a sunburn on the area to be tattooed.
You have a beach vacation planned within 3 weeks after your appointment.
You have atopic dermatitis on the area to be tattooed.
Aftercare with Dermalize
Keep the Dermalize on for 2–3 days.
Then remove it gently in the shower and wash the tattoo thoroughly, making sure all ink, glue, and residue are gone.
If it falls off early, remove it completely, wash the tattoo, and wait until day 3 to start applying cream.
From day 3, apply a thin layer of cream twice daily — morning and before bed — for two weeks.
Don't scratch or pick at the skin as it peels.
Avoid intense physical activity for 7 days to limit sweating.
Avoid pools, saunas, and similar environments for 14 days.
Avoid direct sun exposure for the first month.
After two weeks, add sunscreen when the tattoo is exposed.
After two weeks, you can switch to a regular moisturizer.
Once healed (around 2 months), send a photo in natural light via Instagram or email — I'd love to see it.
Deposit Policy
Your deposit is non-refundable in case of cancellation. You may reschedule once, provided you notify me at least one week in advance. This keeps things fair for the time and preparation invested in your design, while still leaving room for flexibility.
Retouch Policy
One free retouch is included within 3 months of your session, for small areas that faded or healed unevenly. After 3 months, touch-ups carry an additional fee. To book, reach out via Instagram or email.
