FAQs
What is a HeyTats tattoo?
Not your average temporary tattoo. Heytats develops within 24-36 hours to a rich black pigment that penetrates your skin's outer layer and doesn't only sit atop it.
It lasts 1-2 weeks and fades beautifully as your skin naturally regenerates.
It's a real tattoo. It feels better too.
Are HeyTats safe?
Absolutely.
HeyTats is constructed using skin-friendly, cosmetic-grade ingredients tested to international standards for cosmetic safety.
Clean, plant-based, and wudu-friendly.
Do HeyTats expire?
Yes, they last for 9 months when they are properly stored.
They must be kept dry, cool, and out of direct sunlight or intense heat.
The heat can weaken ink quality—and that’s not what we’re looking for.
How long will my HeyTat last?
Usually 7 to 14 days, depending on the placement, your skin type, and the way you take care of it.
Sweaty or high-friction spots may promote increased fading—it's just a matter of aftercare and your daily grind.
My tattoo became lighter in 3 days?
That’s likely application error, skin type, or placement.
Oily skin, sweating, or applying on uneven areas can cause faster fading.
Always make sure to apply on clean, dry skin, moisturize your body regularly (but not the tattoo directly right after application), and avoid friction in the first 12 hours.
How do I remove Heytats?
HeyTats fades naturally over 1-2 weeks, but if you want to speed things up:
Gently exfoliate daily.
Moisturize.
Avoid scrubbing too aggressively — your skin deserves kindness.
Remember, since HeyTats sinks into your skin, you can’t just peel it off like a sticker. Let it fade with your skin’s rhythm.
Pro tip? 15-minute sauna or intense scrubbing can also speed up fading — but we don’t recommend that unless you’re done flexing it.
