Why Proper Aftercare
Is Essential
At Tools of Trade, aftercare is part of the tattoo process not an
afterthought.
Correct aftercare:
• Supports healthy skin healing
• Preserves ink clarity and detail
• Reduces the risk of irritation or infection
• Helps tattoos age well over time
This is especially important for fine line tattoo Cape Town
styles.
First Days: Cleaning
& Healing Basics
After your session at our Tattoo Parlour Cape Town:
• Keep the tattoo clean using mild, fragrance-free soap

Healing varies by skin type and placement.

What to Avoid
& Tattoo Removal FAQ

qualified professionals.
