The growing number of individuals getting tattoos is anticipated to drive the expansion of the tattoo aftercare products market in the future. A tattoo is a permanent or temporary image, design, or word applied to the skin by inserting needles into the dermis layer to create a design. Tattoo aftercare products play a crucial role in supporting the increasing number of people who choose to get tattoos by promoting proper healing, minimizing the risk of complications, and enhancing the overall tattoo experience. These products are specifically formulated to meet the unique needs of freshly tattooed skin, offering essential care and protection. For example, in June 2022, an article published by Ink Different Tattoo School, a US-based institution for tattoo apprenticeships, noted that older millennials are the most likely demographic to have tattoos, with 38% of adults aged 30-39 being inked. Additionally, 40% of US citizens under 35 years old have at least one tattoo, while 35% of UK citizens aged 30-39 have tattoos. Therefore, the increasing number of individuals getting tattoos is set to propel the growth of the tattoo aftercare products market.
The substantial growth of disposable incomes worldwide is a significant contributor to the expanding tattoo aftercare products market. Disposable income, which represents the money remaining after covering mandatory expenses, has seen an uptick due to improved economic conditions. Rising disposable incomes empower individuals to invest in high-quality aftercare products, ensuring the preservation and vibrancy of their tattoos. According to October 2023 data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), disposable income in the United States increased from $18,247.8 billion in the first quarter of 2022 to $19,880.2 billion in the first quarter of 2023. Therefore, the global rise in disposable incomes is poised to drive the tattoo aftercare products market.
Leading companies in the tattoo aftercare products market are introducing new items, such as shea butter-based creams, to enhance skin hydration, promote healing, and alleviate irritation for those caring for freshly-inked tattoos.

For example, in May 2024, Branded Legacy Inc., a US-based holding company collaborating with celebrity tattoo artist Katrina "Kat Tat" Collins, launched Enigma by Kat Tat, a shea butter-based cream aimed at setting a new benchmark in the tattoo aftercare market, which is anticipated to experience significant growth in the coming years. This product is specifically formulated to promote healing and improve the longevity of tattoos. Enigma by Kat Tat is available for purchase online.
Leading companies in the tattoo aftercare products market are also emphasizing the development of innovative solutions such as tattoo repair patches. These patches are designed to repair, rejuvenate, and recover damaged, faded, or irritated tattoos. For instance, in August 2023, Mad Rabbit, an independent U.S.-based tattoo care product company, launched a 'first of its kind' tattoo repair patch. The patch combines chemicals such as D-Panthenol, Olive Leaf Extract, and Glycerin, injected into a 3-D hydrogel matrix to promote healing. Offering a long-term and effective solution for tattooed skin healing and protection, this tattoo repair patch represents a significant innovation in the market.
In May 2022, Inked, a U.S.-based digital media, apparel, personal care, and merchandising company, entered into a three-year digital media partnership with Mad Rabbit for the monopoly Project M.
