Tattoo Pain
.
The top question I always get asked about my tattoos are whether they hurt.
Currently I have two on my upper arm, both themed and represent something to me that I love- I tend to keep photos off social media to avoid someone looking at them and deciding they want the same also- they're personal and I wouldn't want others to have the same.
So pretty much, a tattoo's pain is burning- more like sunburn- if you can cope with getting into a hot shower after getting sunburn, then you can cope with getting a tattoo- so don't worry guys!
For both, my tattoos took no longer than 3 hours to do which sounds a lot but eventually your body becomes sensitised to the pain and feels somewhat numb.
It's a shame that sometimes the only thing holding someone back from getting a tattoo is the fear of pain- but it's nothing your body can't cope with and the end result should hopefully be beautiful!
