Can my tattoo get infected?

If you don't keep it clean while it is healing, your tattoo can get infected, just like any open wound. A tattoo is basically depositing a pigment beneath the surface of the skin through a series of minute puncture wounds. Whenever the skin is perforated, there is the risk of an infection from microbes. We recommend the use of a cream that we offer such as Tattoo Goo as this helps the healing process and is also an antibacterial, this product is also believed to aid in keeping the colour of your tattoo fresher longer.
