Meet Maddy

Maddy Sehring is a Pittsburgh native and began her dream of tattooing in 2021, shortly after her move to Portland, Maine. Maddy found love in working with clients/customers during the nine years she spent in the restaurant industry. In addition to her love for tattooing, she has been a ceramicist, a graphic designer, a design consultant, and a painter. Anything artistic Maddy could get her hands on, she did.  She finds inspiration in human anatomy, silly/punny things, oddities and spooky themes, cherished nick-nacks and objects, and anything from the world of cartoons and traditional tattoo artwork. Maddy is a well-rounded & versatile artist, however, she does have a keen eye for cartoon artwork, playful American Traditional inspired tattoos, and pretty much anything that has a good joke behind it. Whether you’re looking for a sentimental, serious, or silly tattoo, Maddy will work with you to ensure you receive a design that you can cherish for a lifetime.

Aftercare

  • Take off the plastic wrap 2 hours after you have been tattooed (feel free to leave it on longer, but do not remove it before it has been wrapped for 2 hours)
  • Do not rewrap your tattoo at all during the healing process
  • After the wrap is removed, give your tattoo a wash with antibacterial unscented soap (dial, soft soap)
  • Be sure to wash your tattoo last in the shower so that all fragrances from your other shower products get out of it
  • -After washing your tattoo apply a pea-sized amount of Aquaphor or tattoo aftercare (crybaby, hustle butter, cocoa butter) with clean hands
  • Do this routine twice a day for 4-5 days until your tattoo starts to flake off and heal
  • After your tattoo starts to “peel” you can cut down to washing it with an unscented antibacterial soap 1 time per day & switch from Aquaphor to an unscented lotion of your choice (Aveno, Cetaphil, Lubriderm)
  • Do not scratch, pick, or peel your tattoo when it is flaking off
  • There will be pigment in the flakes of your tattoo, which is normal! It is not your tattoo falling out!
  • Stay out of the sun, the gym, and the tanning bed for at least two weeks after you get tattooed
  • Do not go swimming or soak in any body of water (pools, oceans, lakes, hot tubs, bathtubs) for at least two weeks after you get tattooed
  • After your tattoo is fully healed, apply sunscreen before receiving sun exposure and use moisturizer regularly (this ensures longevity of pigment and keeps your tattoo looking fresh)
  • If you have any questions or concerns about the healing process or if your aftercare method is safe for your tattoo, please do not ask friends or Google. Reach out to me directly!
