The calligraphic tattoo
What is this?
Calligraphic tattooing is a style inspired by the art of calligraphy, emphasizing elegant lines and artistic forms. This style of tattooing is characterized by the use of stylized fonts, often inspired by handwriting, to create meaningful letters, words, or phrases. Curves and arabesques are frequently incorporated to add an extra artistic touch, resulting in expressive and aesthetically pleasing tattoos. The focus is on the beauty and harmony of the written forms.

Advice after the service
Leave the bandage on for 4 to 5 days: This helps protect the area from bacteria.
Clean gently with neutral soap: Once you remove the bandage, gently wash the tattooed area with mild soap and lukewarm water twice a day, morning and evening. Do not use perfumed soap or abrasive agents.
Pat dry gently: After cleaning, be sure to dry the area by gently patting it with a clean towel. Avoid rubbing vigorously.
Apply a thin layer of tattoo healing ointment: Use the balm provided by your tattoo artist after each cleaning of your tattoo on dry skin. Apply a thin layer to avoid excess.
Repeat this washing and ointment routine throughout the healing period.
Avoid direct sun exposure: Avoid direct sun exposure during the healing period. UV rays can damage freshly tattooed skin and cause complications.
Avoid prolonged baths: Avoid prolonged baths, saunas, and swimming pools during the healing period. Limit the time spent in water to prevent excessive skin softening.
Avoid scratching or rubbing the area: Even though it may be tempting, do not scratch the tattooed area. This could lead to complications and loss of color.
Wear loose clothing: If the tattoo is in an area where clothing may rub, wear loose clothing during the healing period to avoid irritation.
Avoid irritants: Avoid irritants such as alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or antibiotic creams, unless otherwise instructed by your tattoo artist.
Do not pick at the scabs: Let the scabs fall off on their own for optimal healing.
If signs of infection appear (excessive redness, swelling, pus discharge, fever, etc.), it is important to consult a healthcare professional quickly.
The healing period is between 2 and 4 weeks.
