Hi guys, i want to get a tattoo in memory of my best friend who passed away in Jan.
I want it to say
"A memory lasts forever, Never does it die. True friends stay together And never said goodbye"
I want to put it down my tricep like this
Anyone know how painful this area would be and a rough price if anyone knows, thanks!0 -

No-one except the artist can give you a price quote.
With regards pain, it's a personal thing, but I don't think the tricep area is meant to be too bad. I had the outside of my arm tattooed, and it wasn't bad except near the shoulder. The inside of the arm is meant to be rough. But again, you can ask the artist, they'll have a wider experience than any of us with seeing the reaction of a lot of people.0 -

OK, I have both arms done (on biceps, none on forearms or anything) and I have my back/shoulderblades done. Now my tattooist has an idea for my legs, but he didn't specify where. I was thinking maybe the calf? I've seen it done on lads and it looks savage (with the right tattoo of course), but how painful is it in comparison? Hurts more or less or the same?
I was thinking of maybe getting this?
OR
Cheers.0 -

Hi!
I was just wondering about the pain involved in getting a tattoo along the inside of your foot.
I want to get a quote roughly 5in long...which is pretty much the entire length of my foot (i've got tiny feet)
I'm not brilliant at pain, like I have a tattoo on back of hip which was grand, and just above the bone on my inside ankle, once again grand but when doing both I definitely noticed the increase in pain over the more bony parts. Will the pain on the inside of my foot be kinda similar to the pain for the others when they were over the bony parts...or will it be worse?
I know there have been previous threads on foot tattoo but they all seem to be more about getting one on the top of your foot but sorry if this has already been answered!!
This is what I'm getting tattooed hopefully0 -

I'm guessing the closer to the sole the less it holds...would I be right?
Also not massively unbearable doesn't fill me with a whole pile of confidence :P
Pretty much yeah!
Well put it this way, I personally found it to be the sorest of places to get tattooed, but it's not unbearable pain. You'll be fine

what would you compare the pain of getting a tattoo to?
I'm not really sure, I have the full front of my body covered in them and can say that the chest was pretty painful, But yet I still stayed still and let my mate tattoo me for hours on end lol, So its sort of like a bearable pain that can hurt more in some places on some people and not at all on others, I laughed getting my ribs tattoo'd when everyone said that was real sore, So I think you kinda have to get one really

tattoos do hurt however it all depends on where you get them done and everyones pain threshold is different. my first tattoo is 34 stars from my hip up my back to my shoulder. some areas where grand and others made me grit my teeth at times. my second tattoo is on the the top of my leg, its a butterfly. the outline didnt bother me at all however the shading did. once you accept you might feel pain though i think it makes it easier. just make sure you really want it and if you do its bearable then if you really want it. 0

Hey, seriously thinking about getting my septum pierced, I know its probably gonna be pretty sore, but I've had my nostril pierced twice, both ears and a vertical labret, how does the septum compare pain wise?
It was pretty bad when I had mine done, but I think that was a lot to do with the fact that it was pierced incorrectly, at an angle through the cartilage at the bottom of my septum. My eyes watered like crazy too. Basically I didn't bat an eyelid when I had my ear pierced recently but I had to lie down for a minute after the septum. :P
When the needle went in I was like "ok, this is fine," but when it went through the cartilage I kept thinking "OH GOD why did I decide to do this." :L
I'll probably be getting mine repierced tomorrow, I can report back on the level of pain when the piercing is done correctly after that. I'm inclined to think it'll be completely fine.
But don't let the pain put you off it, even after my awful experience I would've been glad I had it done if it was straight.0 -

I haven't got a great pain threshold, found the piercing on the back of my neck pretty damn sore. Planning my first tattoo soon and the place I've picked is the top of the feet, matching ones on either side. It will be an all black outline, with a finger nailed sized amount of colour in each. Will it hurt less if its not filled in with colour? And am I crazy going for the feet first, when its the least fleshy part of me?

I found the top of the foot to be one of the easiest of my tattoos. In saying that, everybody is different, so you may find it painful.0 -
For me I cried when I got my ears pierced (the second lobe holes) like a sad baby. But my tongue (sadly gone), scaffold (sadly gone due to incompetent piercer), eyebrow, tragus and labret didn't hurt me at all. Planning my next piercing already.
As to my tattoos I have three on my arms around my wrists, they were no bother. I have two large ones, a cross on my outside calf, no bother, and a skull on the inner calf - that one began to hurt in the third hour and by the time the white outlining was being done I was fit to die The one on my foot took two hours and was grand in general for pain, it was only towards the end of the two hours and again with the white outlining when it started to hurt, and then the pain was mostly confined to the spot just above my big toe.
I really think pain is relative though. My friend got a piece on his inner arm and he said he hated every minute of it. He is also a cry baby when it comes to piercings (but for general pain - like being sick etc - he would handle it 100 times better than me!)0 -

Anyone gotten one along the spine?
I have one at the top of my back going across the spine and have to say I found it grand really not to bad on the pain barrier anyway it was one of my first tattoos and my lasting memory of it is of some girl getting her first tattoo and fainting after about two inchs of the outline had been done :pac: a bit of sugary sweet and a 15 min break and she good to go though.
But back on track spine youll be ok really didnt find it very painfull at all worst for me so far has been the ribs and even that was ok for the first three to four hours anfter that it really started to burn. 0 -

Does a lip piercing hurt? At the side. I know pain threshold is different for everyone, but people's honest thoughts on it? ;D
Only have my ears pierced, and well I guess it actually hurt only for like a few minutes... So can't reallyy compare much. 0 -

Personally I found it fine, it's more of a pressure than a pain, healing and aftercare is very straight forward to!0 -

Agreed. I don't have a side piercing yet (just the middle one) and I found it not a bother at all Thinking of getting a new piercing meself and trying to decide what to get. Must ask peeps for suggestions!!! 0 -

Hey guys. I've been wanting to get a tattoo for the past year or so. I've a few planned out, but the main one I want would be on my inner forearm (a script piece going from just at the elbow crease down to my wrist). However, I have a really low pain threshold and have been known to faint due to that occasionally Am I crazy for even considering getting a tattoo done? Would a decent artist even consider doing work on someone with such a low pain threshold? 0

If you keep your blood sugars up (Bring sweets or lukozade or something with you) and you'll probably be fine. Yes it's sore, but it's bearable.0 -
