Looking for ideas of what to get as a 1st tattoo. Nothing to big & outrageous, just nice & simple . For those with tattoos, what was your 1st & how sore is it!? I'm never good with pain lol x

I was 17 when I got my first one, its a bumble bee, pain wise, the outline is the sorest bit, the colouring in bit isnt too bad! I describe it like a cat scratch. Dont go near boney areas though, if youve any padded areas stick to them!

Miss N ask yourself these questions first.

Why do you want the tattoo?

Where do you want it?

What kind of tattoo do you want (one that symbolises something to you or just a pretty picture)?

Kink where do you go for your ink please?

most padded areas aint a good idea its more to do with areas and amount of pain receptors in the area than whether areas got flesh or not one of the most painful areas is the tricep area which is padded across the shins is not painful at all

No idea, I'm lost. Damn Sat nav!

I have five,good angel on.my right shoulder,nawty devil on my left ,a trailing butterfly between my shoulders,a heart and rose on my ankle and a missdynomite on at the bottom of my back .

Pick something you 100% sure of they do hurt but a bit like childbirth as soon as they stop so does the pain ....and yes the outline is the worst feels like someone dragging a razorblade through your skin so take some paracetomol just before you have it done it will dull the pain a bit xxx

I have 12:

Shoot the moon on my foot

Real eyes realise real lie on my wrist

Freddie on my arm

Te amo nana on my arm

8 for my son:

Connor and his handprints on my wrist

Mummys little star dowm shoulder

His footprints on my collarbone

His funeral song inside my arm

His initial on my wedding finger

His time of birth inside one finger

Date of birth inside another

And a star on my shoulder with words for him

The ones inside my fingers wer by FAR the sorest felt like i was gettin my finger chopped off, but if i can stand the pain anyone can

I've tattooed myself, one on my hand and doing bits and pieces of a sleeve on my arm.

I could tattoo myself all day long, it's not really sore at all.

no need for paracetamol go to boots and ask for the cream that has the numbing agent in it ,, u will hardly feel a thing , dont listen to these people when they say it doesnt hurt, it does, goes numb after a bit, but for someone getting there first I would say be ready for that initial first buzzzz, u will get hooked, very addictive

Really depends where you get it as to how sore it is and defo have a good think about what you want , I had my first at 18 and just had it covered up as it was tacky , on shoulder and no pain, got one from toe up to breast and further up the sorer it got but its an adictive pain .

Why not have it lasered?

We've both had that done very successfully and can put you in touch with someone who can do it.

OP, they all hurt.

Got one across the base of my back a few years back.... Probably wouldn't be my first choice now to be fair.

Would / will have another one. Didn't really mind the pain at all. Just waiting for inspiration for my next one. Kinda like the idea of a sleeve / half sleeve but not really got the arms for it

Forget any numbing creams they wear off pretty fast, let your bodies natural defences kick in to manage the pain.

Numbing cream doesn't do anything, you'd be as well taking your money and chucking it in the bin.

The numbing cream only numbs the outer of the first layer of skin, tattooing goes through more than one layer of skin.

Im the worlds worst but have nearly my second sleeve completed, its a manageable pain and quickly subsides after it. There is no specific area thats sore it varies from person to person any area like a wrist, elbow, inner bicep the artist tends to go a bit gentler...

All in the mind maybe, the cream lasts around 45 mins after which its the pain receptors that managing it.

Let's consider how Emla works. The cream or patch is applied to the skin and you have to wait 30 minutes for it to take effect. Once it starts working, it only lasts for about 30 to 45 minutes . An average sized tattoo takes about two hours. This would mean that you would have to: (1)Apply the cream to 1/4 of the area to be tattooed. (2)Wait 30 minutes. (3)Begin tattooing, and stop after 30 minutes when it starts to wear off. (4)Apply the cream to another 1/4 of the area. (5)Wait 30 minutes. (6)Tattoo this section for half an hour. (7)Apply the cream to another 1/4 section of the area. (8)Wait 30 minutes. (9)Tattoo for another 30 minutes. (10)Apply the cream to the last quarter of the tattoo. (11)Wait 30 minutes. (12)Finally finish the tattoo.

You have just turned a 2-hour tattoo into a 4+ hour project.
