it all depends on your pain tolerance level, mine only hurt for about the first 5 minutes or so then it was fine.
I have a celtic knot there.

I don't have it done, but my best friend has his entire back neck tattooed.
He said it hurt like a *****, but sat through the whole thing, so that says enough because the kid has zero pain tolerance.
No matter what the pain, you'll live through it, and it'll all be worth it in the end when you have a great tattoo that you love.

i dont imagine it would hurt as much as some other places. I have a tattoo on the bony part of my hip that goes up onto my stomach. the stomach parn hardly hurt but the hip hurt conciderably. i believe it hurts more to get tattooed over bones but there is a bit of meat on the back of the neck. go for it! i love tattos. and the back ofhe neck is fairly easy to cover with hair if needed

don't use any soap at all. this is a common misconception. soap dries out your skin and produces thicker scabs which yield poor results. I have a back of the neck tattoo, and since it's kind of hard to see for yourself what's going on without a mirror, I just wore my hair up for a few days until it developed a scab. don't use compresses on a scab; this simply prolongs healing times and could potentially lift ink. different people's skin will heal differently- some may end up with a thick scab while doing everything right, and others won't. I always end up with a hefty crust despite vigilant care, and all my 6 tattoos look just great. i have beard that bacitracin is detrimental to tattoo health- try organic, virgin coconut oil; it's anti inflammatroy, anti fungal and anti viral properties help ward off infection while providing supreme moisture simultaneously. these are all methods that I have found to work most beneficially; even my oldest tattoo is very dark with crisp lines.

I have a heart with a crown covering most of the back of my neck. It hurt, yes, but it was tolerable, and I love my neck piece. I've had it for almost seven years, and have not regretted it for a second.

I have mine done, yeah it hurt. but pain is very subjective what hurts to some may not hurt others. what hurt is him pulling my hairs to pull the skin tight so he could tattoo it. I have a 5 inch piece on my neck that I drew.
good luck!!

Sorry...but to people's reasoning to why not to get tattoo's espeacially when they say "what do you think it'll look like when your old?" What does it matter! It's not like your going to show your body off when your that old. I'm not worried what it'll look like at that age because no one is going to see my body unless I get an old granny swim suit to go swimmin' and even then I'll already be wrinkly and spotty so why not have some color? =)
By then they may even have new technical things to reduse sagging and wrinkles anyway.

i don't, but my sister does.
i recently asked her about the pain, because i am thinking of getting one in that location, she "claims" that it didn't hurt. but she has an extremely high pain tolerance, so it probably didn't hurt her.
she has an ankh, it is black, with blue shading around it to resemble water, and it has a blue eye in the middle of the ankh, with these pretty long lashes on it.
its very cute!!

Ok, I don't mean to be rude or anything, and you can have your own oppinion, but there are 3 reasons why NOT to get tattoos.
1. The are very painful (especially on your neck).
2. They are expensive.
3. What do you think it is going to look like when your like 80?
