How to prepare for your tattoo session

Below, we provide some tips on how to prepare before getting your tattoo to ensure better healing and facilitate the process.

Hydration

Staying hydrated is essential. Drinking water in the days leading up to your tattoo helps keep your skin hydrated, making it more resilient and allowing for better ink absorption. This will make both the tattooing process and healing easier.

Nutrition

Maintaining a proper diet is crucial in the days leading up to your tattoo. A nutritious diet will help maintain your energy levels. Poor nutrition can lead to blood sugar drops, which may cause dizziness or even fainting. We recommend consuming foods rich in proteins and carbohydrates to optimize your well-being.

Avoid Alcohol and Drugs

It is essential to abstain from consuming alcohol or drugs before getting a tattoo. These substances can affect blood clotting, potentially interfering with the tattooing process and increasing the risk of infections. Additionally, alcohol or drug consumption can impair your ability to manage pain and hinder the proper healing of the tattoo.

Skin Care

Avoid excessive sun exposure, harsh chemicals, or any irritants that could compromise the skin's health leading up to your tattoo. Afterward, continue to take care of the skin to ensure optimal healing and to preserve the quality of the tattoo.

Consultation

If you have any questions or concerns before, during, or after your tattoo, it is important to consult with your tattoo artist. They can provide you with personalized advice on the best care practices, help clarify any doubts regarding the tattooing process, and address specific skin or health concerns you may have. Ensuring clear communication with your artist will help ensure a positive experience and optimal results. You can reach us by email: hellomontreal@nobleart.com or by phone 1 (514) 909-5266
