Let's get started.
So what shouldn't you do when you're having a tattoo? The biggest no-no is to take any kind of drugs or alcohol before hand. This will make it much harder for the tattoo to do his work, and it will probably come out worse. In fact, the real professionals won't even give you your tattoo if you're drunk - they will just turn you away.
But actually, there isn't really a need to do this anyway. Because the pain from a tattoo isn't going to be what you're expecting. While the idea of needles going under your skin repetitively does sound painful - most people who have had a tattoo report that the feeling isn't what you're expecting. Most people say it has a burning sensation, and feeling of "hot scratching" which isn't as comfortable as a having a massage - but isn't too painful, either.
If you're really worried about the pain, then it's a good idea to start out with a smaller tattoo to see what your pain threshold is like - and how bearable it is for you. It's also quicker to have a small tattoo, you won't have to sit in the chair for hours.
Now let's talk about the most painful places to have a tattoo. Places of your body which are "boney" tend to be more painful. Locations such as your wrists and ankles tend to be more uncomfortable the other locations. If you have a tattoo in a fleshier part of your body, it will feel less painful. Your arms, shoulders and back are good candidates for a pain-free tattoo.
Also, some tattoo artists can provide you with "desensitizing gel" which will numb the feeling quite a bit. If you're finding it painful, it may be worth a try.
In conclusion, this article has discussed ways to minimize the pain of a tattoo. We talked about what you shouldn't do before you have a tattoo, what the pain actually feels like, and some of the painful places to get a tattoo. Now that you've finished reading this article, you should be better informed on dealing with the potential pain of having a tattoo applied.
