Can I workout after getting a tattoo?

After finishing your tattoo, your tattoo artist will most likely suggest that you wait at least 48 hours before strenuous physical activity and heavy sweating. The important words are “at least.” It generally takes 4 to 6 weeks for a wound to heal.

Can I lift weights after getting a tattoo?

The pulling of skin as muscles expand and contract together with excessive sweat entering the area of your fresh tattoo can prove challenging to the healing process.

Can you drive after a leg tattoo?

“I don’t like doing anything that makes me sweat unless I come at the end of it!” At the studio, we generally advice to not drive after a session. It is not really about the swelling or the pain, its because it happens quite frequently that people start feeling dizzy and sick shortly after the end of the session.

Can you shower after you get a tattoo?

Yes, you can (and should!) shower with a new tattoo, as long as you don’t completely soak it. Avoid swimming—whether in a pool, lake, or the ocean—and submerging your tattoo in a bath or hot tub for two to three weeks, though; this may cause serious damage.

Can I have a glass of wine after getting a tattoo?

No. You would be ill advised to drink alcohol in the first 24 hours after getting a tattoo. Alcohol consumption thins the blood. Worse, the thinner your blood, the more excessive any possible bleeding you might have after getting your tattoo will be (some leaking/seepage of blood and plasma is normal).
