It’s important to give your new tattoo time to heal before resuming training. In general, it’s recommended to wait at least 2–3 days after a tattoo session before starting to work out again. This gives the tattoo time to heal and reduces the risk of infection.It’s also important to follow your tattoo artist’s aftercare instructions, as they may provide specific guidance on when it’s safe to begin training again.

Sleeping with a new tattoo can be a bit challenging, as it’s important to keep the tattoo clean and protected while it heals.Here are some tips on how to sleep with a new tattoo:Use a clean, soft piece of fabric: Cover the tattoo with a clean piece of fabric, such as cotton, to protect it from dirt and bacteria while you sleep.Avoid sleeping on the tattoo: Try to sleep on the opposite side of your body or on your back so the tattoo isn’t pressed or rubbed against the bedding.Use a bandage: If the tattoo is large or placed in an area where it’s difficult to avoid sleeping on it, it may be a good idea to cover it with a bandage at night to protect it from dirt and bacteria.Use a good moisturizer: Moisture is important for the healing process, so make sure to apply a good moisturizer to the tattoo before bedtime. We sell creams in the studio that are specifically designed for this purpose, both as cream-based and water-based options.Avoid sleeping in tight clothing: Some people sleep in clothes. If you do, make sure to wear loose-fitting, soft clothing that won’t rub against the tattoo while you sleep.Follow the tattoo artist’s instructions: Your tattoo artist will give you aftercare instructions following your session, so be sure to follow them carefully to ensure proper healing.It’s important to remember that tattoos take time to heal, and proper care is essential to ensure good healing. It may be a good idea to use an extra pillow or two to help you stay in a comfortable position and avoid rubbing against the tattoo.If you’re ever unsure about sleeping or caring for a new tattoo, you’re always welcome to call or write to us. We’re always happy to help.
