my uncle is a tattoo artist. He also has many tattoos. He never complained about any of it. If you are thinking about piercings, they dont hurt at all. it is quick. I have a belly-button piercing and it didnt hurt so i dont think a tattoo could hurt that much. Just to be safe, just ice your arm a lot before you go so you wont feel a thing. im kidding. No, it wont hurt that much. just be sure u r going to a safe place and not a place where u could get a disease from the needle.
Tattoos are very sexy. Good choice.

All tattoos involve some level of pain, but for most people, this pain is very mild. Some even find it relaxing. The level of pain depends mostly on what part of the body the tattoo is being applied, and your particular level of pain. The tattoo needles don't go very deep, so it's more of an irritating, surface pain, not a deep pain as in getting a shot.

This may sound crazy but it definitely depends on how big the tattoo artist is. I have two and that's the conclusion I came up with. The one on my arm, I had done by a skinny guy and it didn't hurt bad, it just stung. The one on my back was done by a fat man and he was heavy handed , he bear ed most of his weight down on me and dug the needle into my back. It hurt so bad.
Ps. Wish I knew you because I would take you on celeb look a likes. You look like the Lead character in the movie"Harold and Kumar go to white castle."

I won't lie it does hurt a bit,but it stops hurting after a few minutes of them working on you.I have 6 tattoos and they are worth the little bit of pain I experienced.A tip for you ,get a tattoo that means something to you ,not something you will regret!

It won't hurt much at all. Maybe a little at the start, but it doesn't take long for the area to go numb from the vibration of the needle. The pain is minimal, I wouldn't worry about it. I'd be more worried about who is sticking you with the needle.

I have a tattoo on my lower back and when got it I thought it hurt, and where I got it they said that it's one of the most sensitive places and it didn't hurt that bad. It feels like a cat scratching you over and over. The outline is the worst part. I was only 14 when I got mine.

When you get hepatitis C, which may not have an impact on you for years? I believe liver failure and death are possible side effects. Good luck. My feeling is, if you're not a pirate - a group of folk know for short lifespans - don't get a tattoo or an earring.

Don't listen to the people that tell you not to get one. It's your body. Get it if you want it. I have 2 on my chest, and the only time they hurt was when the needle went over my collar bone. I think an arm shouldn't really hurt that much.

It's more of a steady burning sensatrion than a sharp pain. escept the outline that actually does hurt, but once they start to fill, it's just a really hot feeling. then your endorphoins kick in and it feels pretty good really.

Its going to hurt.
I dont know how much it will hurt because every body has a different pain tolerance.
