(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I have read around a bit and seen different opinions and still am not sure I want one.
I am pretty good with pain I suppose, also the tattoo I am wanting isn't going to be that big
I plan on getting it placed on my bicept.

I have four tattoo's at the moment. It really depends on the area where you get it and how sensitive your skin is. Everyone has different feels so your always going to get different answers. My first tattoo I got on my wrist and didn't hurt, it tickled a little. My second was on my leg which hurt more then I thought but it did take 4 hours to do. My third is along my arm, it stung a little and my fourth was behind my ear which I have to be honest I didn't feel a thing. I plan on getting more for sure in time

Have fun being refused jobs left right and center.

It doesn't really hurt much. I took painkillers before mine so I can't really say.

Depends on the body part, bone is going to hurt more compared to a belly. Pain threshold is another thing to take into account some people can have one done on the bone be fine. Others cry like a little girl

Bite your teeth together and just take the pain. The pain is temporary but the tattoo is forever!

It doesn't really hurt ive got 4 tattoos 2 on my wrists one on my bicept and one on my ass (that one is for laughs) the only thing that really hurts on the bicep is if the tattooist hits a bit of skin that hasn't he/she hasn't hit

Anyone who says getting a tattoo doesn't hurt is a fucking liar. However, there are places that hurt more than others. Some hurt like a bitch, others just have a slight pain to them, but wherever you get them, they are certainly manageable otherwise you wouldn't have people who are extensively covered. I have 6, and aim to get more. I can confidently say that the one down my left forearm didn't hurt anywhere near as much as the one on my calf - that hurt like a fucker. My longest sitting so far has been 5 and half hours, with my shortest being 90mins. I have also used 5 artists so far.

Few pointers:
1) If you want a tattoo that badly, don't be fooled into thinking that a smaller one is a better choice. The pain should not be a deciding factor, as if you go for a smaller one to avoid the pain, you will inevitably want a bigger one once it is finished, so make sure that you are settled on the size you want it.
2) Do your research. Find a tattoo artist that you like the work of - do not be afraid to be ask for portfolios. Also, don't decide on an artist purely on price, many who get cheaper tattoos regret getting them because they are not as good as someone who charges more. Remember these things are on you for life so you have to like them.
3) Make sure that the studio is sterile and has an autoclave, as well as having seperate rooms, or at the very least areas, for the tattoos and the piercings.
4) Most artists will be happy to do a sitting of up to about 3 hours per piece (unless it's a big piece like a back piece or something where they can dedicate more time to it). Some will do more, some will do less. If you are really in that much discomfort *note I don't say pain*, then feel free to ask for a break, but remember that if you leave a session you will have a half finished piece of work on you...

Hope this helps.

I made a tattoo gun and gave myself one. I got a triforce on my leg. The pain stung a little but wasn't something that was unbearable.
But i could see how it would hurt alot if it was a big tattoo

Well I have heard from other people saying that if you tell the artist that it is your first tat he is going to make you hurt... That kinda scares me lol.

When I had my tattoo I'm not going to lie it hurt in some places, mainly because it was something I've not felt before.. It mainly hurt near my wrist and near my elbow..

However my brother has one on his ribs and said it hurts like a bitch but he literally is the skinniest person I know so it was like scraping bone.
