Re: Piercings and Tats

For those with tattoos, could you include a description of your tattoo and how much it hurt on a scale of 1-10? I'd really appreciate it as I'm getting a tattoo on my shoulder blade soon!

particularly considering how fleshy your arm would be compared to the inside of my wrist

dude fleshy is supposed to hurt more than firm skin
though wrist is a tad bony.........

i only say 8 because it goes for ages not because it hurts like fury for the whole time... its standable, but not enjoyable at all

Septum = the bit in the middle of your nose, separating your nostrils.

ie) where a bull gets pierced.

Re: Piercings and Tats

That's a really cool tat, but I don't think I'd ever want a face drawn on me. I love tattoos of birds. Just so long as they're not eagles. Too American white trash for me!

Re: Piercings and Tats

I'd get heaps of tats. When I get my pilots wings I'll get them tattooed just above the left nipple. I may also get southern cross and maltese cross or an eagle (not the white trash American kind ^^^^ but the German kind-but not a nazi kind of eagle).

I have a tattoo about 10cm high and 4 cm wide on my lower back and it hurts alot. The pain is not constant, it hurts in some spots alot more than others, especially over bone. The Outline hurts but shading just feels like rubbing a bit hard.


It is a line between bearable and unbearable. It feels like someone had a pin and is dragging it over your skin that's the best way to describe it. But you will probably laugh at how much it hurts like I did. Just clench your teeth and hold someones hand and it won't be that bad because you get used to it after they start. Don't be phased by the noise of the gun. I suggest you watch someone else getting a tattoo before you go so you know what your in for.

Out of ten if 1 is like getting a hair cut, and 10 is like being burnt or something horrible.. I would say about an 8 as it DOES hurt ALOT but it is bearable once used to it.

Re: Piercings and Tats

facial piercings just don't do it for me. (except ear piercings of course). they're just one ugly metalic turn off. tatoos can be really ugly too. but some understated ones can look quite good in the right places.
