Does Getting a Tattoo Hurt?

Yes, getting tattooed does hurt. How much pain that’s involved is dependant on the area of the body being tattooed, and the pain tolerance and mindset of the individual.

A. Pain is really relative. Everyone has a different tolerancy to pain. I’m not going to kid you, though – it does hurt. Just not that much. Some have compared it to a “hot scratching feeling”. But, people would not be returning again and again for tattoo after tattoo if it hurt that bad! Most of us are not into pain, but the beauty of the tattoo and the pride associated with wearing it far outweighs a little pin-stick here and there.

A. Everyone has a different pain threshold, but alot of it depends on where you get the tattoo at. Some places hurt more than others, but most people will tell you that it’s not as bad as they thought.

It depends. Some say it’s like a real intense burning sensation. Others say it’s only a mild irritation. People have even fallen asleep while I was tattooing them.
