So, I am planing on getting a tattoo on my wrist. Not big at all and not alot of coloring or shading..

How bad will it hurt.

I looked through many websites and lots of people say it doesn't hurt as bad as most places..

I have my nose and belly pierced.. Can I handle the pain of that..?

I have a tattoo on my wrist.
I don't know how much it hurts compared to other places, because it's the only one I have, but it's not really that bad. It just depends on your pain tolerance.
Some people say it feels like a bunch of bee stings, but I don't think it really felt like that for me.

Do it.

I just got stars on my hipbones a couple weeks ago.

It hurts, but then after a few minutes it just feels like someone rubbing your skin really hard.

tattoos feel like when you have really bad sunburn and you get in a hot shower you know how it stings? its just like that but after that it goes numb. Your tattoo would only take about 10 minutes to do so I wouldnt worry. Its totally different to Piercing pain.

Tattoos hurt less on fatty areas.. but then again it also depends on your pain threshold. I got my lower back done last year.. i got told it'd hurt because there isn't much meat there and because i'm so thin.
It didn't hurt me at all.. i was actually bored during my tattoo. The outline feels like a burn.. the colouring is nothing although lighter colours will hurt as they need to go over it a few times.. needles on raw flesh? You decide lol I was half asleep during my colouring in..

Tattoo needles don't really penetrate the skin like piercings, they're very fine and only go to the 2 or 3rd layer of skin, if you can stand piercings and the healing process afterwards i'd think you'll do fine with a tattoo.

Your wrist i think would be more painful than other places but i know plenty of people who have had it done and not whined at all :D

If you get it done and you're uncomfortable with it, ask your tattooist for a few minute break :D

Yeah, I agree with you on that. Mine only took about 35-40 minutes.

that will take about.. 10 - 15 minutes of tattooing... I wouldnt worry too much.


Most people have this idea that every tattoo is going to take long periods of time.. Most dont. alot of sessions will last only an hour plus stenciling.


Ps. if a tattoo place does not have a wait and you can get it done right then and there it means its not a good one. Tattooing is the in thing to do atm so all the good ones are fully booked. Go to a good one, wait 6 months to see them, and get it done properly with no mistakes.

I anticipate that my tattoo is probably gonna take substantially longer than an hour.
Gonna have this pretty much from one shoulder to just above the elbow (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4b/Cheshire_Cat_McGee.jpg)

But, yeah, the majority of things I've seen don't take too long.

Does anyone here have a tattoo or knows someone who has a tattoo on their bottom lip on the inside. I was watching Bam's Unholy Union on MTV and him and his gf got tattoos there. I want to get it cause it seems really cool. Alot of people thinks its pretty rad and they would have never thought of putting one there. Does anyone know if it hurts or not???

I would think it'd hurt, yes. The inside of your mouth is sensitive and tender as it is.

I wouldn't have thought of tattooing my inner lip because i think it looks fucking stupid. :D

Maybe im weird but i like the pain of tattoo's. I think some people actually find that it is relaxing.

Well my tat on my lower back hurt a hell of a lot and I found that on the fleshier parts the pain was more intense. Personally I reckon a tat on the wrist wouldn't hurt as much as on the lower back. We shall find out because I plan to get another tat in a few weeks if I can be bothered.

I think those are stupid. But pretty much all tattoos hurt, it just depends on your pain tolerance.
