Tattoos South Africa – Custom, Safe & Meaningful

Whether you're using a full parallelogram sheet or a pre-trimmed die-cut tattoo, applying your TeMaRo design is quick, clean, and satisfying.

Follow these steps for flawless results:

🧼 Start with clean, dry skin – Remove any lotion, oil, sweat, or body hair from the area for best adhesion

✂️ If using a parallelogram sheet – Cut out your chosen design close to the edge

📌 Place tattoo face-down on skin – Smooth it flat with no air bubbles

💧 Dampen with a wet cloth – Hold firmly for 30 seconds

🧽 Slide paper off gently – Reveal your design and let it air dry

🚫 Avoid rubbing or stretching – Especially for the first hour

Your tattoo should last 2–5 days depending on placement and care.

Want it gone sooner? Just use baby oil, micellar water, or rubbing alcohol to remove it cleanly.

🖋️ Temporary Tattoo Aftercare Instructions

• Let it set: Avoid touching or stretching the skin for at least 30 minutes after application to allow the tattoo to fully adhere.
• Keep it dry: Refrain from showering, swimming, or sweating heavily for the first few hours. Water can break down the adhesive.
• Avoid friction: Try not to rub the tattooed area with clothing, towels, or skin. Friction can cause fading or peeling.
• Skip lotions and oils: Don’t apply moisturizers, sunscreen, or oils directly on the tattoo. These can dissolve the ink or adhesive.
• Pat, don’t scrub: When cleaning the area, gently pat with a damp cloth. Never scrub or use exfoliants.
• Protect from heat: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat, which can cause the tattoo to crack or fade.
• Touch up if needed: If edges start to lift, you can carefully trim them or reapply a small amount of water to press it back down.
