Do Tattoo Artists Use Tattoo Numbing Cream?

Some artists do use numbing cream. And some do not. It all depends on the artist. You should not wait until your appointment to ask, though. Communicate early and often.

Feel free to contact the artist before your appointment to discuss the use of numbing cream. If you find a trusted artist you’re comfortable with, they will be happy to discuss the process with you!

Is Tattoo Numbing Cream Safe? 

Read the label warnings before you use it. Like any topical, numbing cream can cause an allergic reaction in some people. A mild allergic reaction could appear as redness, itchiness, or a rash. 

Do a small patch test before your appointment.

Can Tattoo Numbing Cream Mess Up a Tattoo?  

Thankfully, numbing cream will not mess up a tattoo! Numbing cream does not affect the skin's appearance, texture, or nature. It will not influence how the artist can tattoo your skin. The only thing that numbing cream changes is how you feel (or don’t feel) the tattoo.

What Does a Tattoo Feel Like with Numbing Cream? 

Without any numbing cream, the pain level of a tattoo depends on the location, size, and style. Many people describe the feeling of getting a tattoo as comparable to a sunburn or a cat scratch. The art is poked right into your skin, so it’ll be uncomfortable regardless.

With numbing cream, a tattoo can be more bearable. You will feel the pressure of the tattoo machine on your skin, but there won’t be the same stinging and scratching feeling.

Can I Put Tattoo Numbing Cream on a New Tattoo? 

We don’t recommend putting numbing cream on a new tattoo. Follow your artist’s aftercare instructions. 

Keep it clean and follow your artist's aftercare. Consider using our HUSH Healing Spray or CBD Tattoo Balm on the new tattoo during aftercare.

Talk to your trusted tattoo artist if you have questions about numbing cream for your next tattoo sesh.
