How to Stop a New Tattoo from Itching
Tips and Solutions with KOYA Tattoo Lotion
Getting a new tattoo is awesome, but dealing with the itching that comes with the healing process can be a challenge, to say the least.
It’s crucial to take proper care of your tattoo to ensure it heals well and stays vibrant.
KOYA Tattoo Lotion is specially formulated to help soothe your skin and keep your new ink looking fresh. Here’s how you can use KOYA Tattoo Lotion to stop a new tattoo from itching and promote healthy healing.
Why Do New Tattoos Itch?
Before diving into the solutions, it’s helpful to understand why new tattoos itch. The itching is a normal part of the healing process. Here are a few reasons why it happens:
- Healing Skin: Your skin is essentially healing a wound, and as it does, it starts to itch.
- Dryness: Newly tattooed skin can become dry, which leads to itching.
- Scabbing: As your tattoo heals, scabs may form, causing the area to itch. Nicknamed the "crusties", the itch can drive you mad!
The Importance of Proper Aftercare
Proper aftercare is essential to ensure your tattoo heals correctly and to minimise itching.
Using a high-quality lotion like KOYA Tattoo Lotion can make a significant difference. KOYA Tattoo Lotion is formulated with natural ingredients that soothe and hydrate your skin, helping to reduce itching and promote faster healing.
Steps to Stop a New Tattoo from Itching with KOYA Tattoo Lotion
1. Keep Your Tattoo Clean
It’s vital to keep your new tattoo clean to prevent infections that can cause additional itching and complications. Gently wash your tattoo with mild, fragrance-free soap and lukewarm water. Pat the area dry with a clean towel.
2. Apply KOYA Tattoo Lotion Regularly
One of the best ways to prevent itching is to keep your tattoo moisturised. KOYA Tattoo Lotion is perfect for this. Its natural, non-greasy formula is designed to hydrate and nourish your skin without causing irritation.
- How to Apply: Apply a thin layer of KOYA Tattoo Lotion to your tattooed area 2-3 times a day. Be sure to use clean hands to avoid introducing bacteria to the healing skin.
3. Avoid Scratching or Picking
As tempting as it may be, avoid scratching or picking at your tattoo. This can cause damage and increase the risk of infection. Instead, gently tap the area or apply a bit more KOYA Tattoo Lotion to soothe the itch.
4. Stay Hydrated
Keeping your body hydrated from the inside out can help your skin heal faster and reduce dryness. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support your skin’s natural healing process.
5. Wear Loose Clothing
Tight clothing can rub against your new tattoo and exacerbate itching. Opt for loose, breathable fabrics to allow your tattoo to heal without unnecessary friction.
6. Keep Out of the Sun
Sun exposure can irritate your new tattoo and increase itching. Keep your tattoo covered when outside or apply a sunscreen suitable for tattoos once your tattoo is past the initial healing phase.
