But think about your motive and I'm not saying it's wrong, but think about this. Do you really want a tattoo or do you want to prove something? And yes, I have heard it's very painful from people I know that have had it, but that's up to the individual what they think they should do but I wouldn't be pressured. You might want to think about this for a while and see if it's worth it. For what? You know there is a wonderful alternative. Just to see how you would like it and then you don't have to go through the pain and if you don't like it it's not permanent. They even have words that you peel off this little clear top paper and you wet it and it looks just like the real thing when you transfer it onto your skin. And that way you could also change designs, which would be very fun and if you did it that way, no one would even know that you didn't have a real tattoo. 😁😂😂 another thing to think about is, you really don't know how you feel about that tattoo years from now. And if you get tired of it or don't want it anymore then you have to go through the pain of getting it removed. So maybe you might want to just have fun with it with the temporary tattoos and you can change it up anyway you like, which would really be fun. And I bet if the truth were known, your friend might wish she had done the same and not made it so permanent. Hahaha

How much it hurts depends on where you get it. Although done by needles it doesn’t look or feel like a needle, there is really no comparison. If you want one, get one. Life is too short and tomorrow isn’t guaranteed so live in the moment and do what makes you happy

Even worse than pain is that some people get addicted to accumulating them and some have gotten liver transplants because the ink is constantly leaking in small amounts back into the body and the liver must filter it. Also a case of hepatitis (maybe more) has happened requiring a liver transplant…even though the tattoo artist opened a new needle to use.

As a rule of thumb you probably shouldn't get one directly over a joint as that's often where nerve endings meet so it will be more painful.

Other than that the first five minutes are the worst

Yes it hurts but if you don’t have one you’re the trendy one, you will standout

Hope the tattoo artist can spell better
“Enfvious” 😜

Joking!

Not joking 😬

I got one on the underside of my wrist... maybe an inch and a half long and hardly felt it.

No, it doesn't hurt, maybe feels like a little sunburn, that's it!

I had a tattoo on my wrist a few months ago it’s like getting a needle and dragging it across your skin. It’s not a stabby type pain. The more fat in the area you’re getting tattoo’s the less pain. If it’s bony you’re gonna feel it more. Start with something small and see how you get on

I’d like to get one some day. I don’t do needles well either but I think it would be worth it. I’ve heard mixed things about the pain, but nothing I think you couldn’t sit through and distract yourself from.

Wrists are painful. The thinner the skin the more it smarts. The good news is you get used to the feel of the needles and your body releases dopamine so you get a bit of a high.

I would sleep on it. Think about after, it's done. I advise to run, far away, from the crowd. ☺️

Never have gotten one. Nothing I wanted to put that was permanent like that on my body.

See if you can find one you like. It’ll be worth it

I enjoyed my tattoos.

Depends on where, and your pain tolerance. The one on my wrist was comparable in sensation to a sunburn.
