I was expecting it to hurt a lot but to be honest I hardly felt it. Only a few nippy bits for the whole 90 mins tattoo

 

Not too bad painful at times

 

most people find the boney places more painful, but perdsonally, i find the fleshy bits.... i tend to go by "if it hurts to be pinched there it will ****ing hurt"

just wanted others experiences

 

Had a tattoo on inner bicep, wasnt to bad at all pain wise. Got to lay in a comfy position for a change too which is always nice!!

 

Iv not got on there but i do on the inside of my forearm which is similar skin. to be honest wasnt all that bad although mine took around 5 hours towards the end you run out of adrenaline or whatever it is your bodys uses and it can wear u down a bit but ul be fine. For the worse part was the tendons inside in my vibrating when the needle was over them.

What u thinking of getting?

 

i didn't think it was too bad on the inner bicep mate.

 

Not too bad on inner bicep, found going over my collar bone was worse

 

Pinched a bit but to be honest it hurt more on the chest.

 

What u thinking of getting?

some writing. its mainly going to be line work, maybe with a slight bit of shading ... about, 45 mins worth

 

Lokeg

Interested to hear how it goes. Have one being designed for the same spot for me right now, so any heads up on the pain levels would be great.

Cheers

i thought the inner bicep was a lot tastier painwise than outer bicep,tricep, back and shoulder areas. near the oxter stings. just gotta take your mind off it. no pain= no ink.

 

It rates 2nd worst place on the arm in my book, around the elbow is 1st on the pain scale, talking from experience...

 

I have no point of reference for 'comercial' tattoos.

Had a couple of self-administered ones from my teens, that I also subsequently self removed with a pumice stone. I still have he scars on my left forearm and left inner forearm to show for it. :S my reckoning was if I can go through that I can probably deal with a professional tattooist inking me! Also generally have a high pain threshold.

pro tattoos go deaper than one you would have done yourself. but i imagine you could put up with it if you removed the ones you had yourself!

 

It's no bad mate...inner elbows worst bit on the arm imo

 

My mate who is a 9 stone wuss got his first on his inner bicep so if he can do it anyone can. Go for it. Get some designs up.

 

inner bicep wasnt bad at all..

now on your wrist just were you would slit your wrists that gets sore as fook !!!

inner bicep is just a pain to heal as its always rubbing on something

 

yeah i figured there would be a risk of knocking the scabs off on the inner bicep.

its either going to be there or on the forearm

 

Not looking forward to having my sleeve shaded

On the inside of the elbow, it's a bit sore there!

Gotta have my inner bicep done too so it's good

To hear others views! Inner Elbow and elbow are

sensitive tattooing spots imo!

 

Inner bicep wasnt too bad. The arm pit area sucks big time!!!! And the lower ribs / stomach area

 

Inner bicep more pain than shoulder and outer arm. Local to the arm pit, sore as f!

Just had half sleeve done over 2 days last wednesday and thursday, so the memory of it is pretty clear.

Actually it's the opposite. A good tattooist will only go as deep as is necessary ( not deep at all) and will glide across the skin at this precise depth with a steady hand and years of practice on his side. On the other hand a bloke pushing a needle into his skin that's been dipped in ink or even an amateur with some pro kit will be all over the place and varying angle and depth of skin penetration leading to more pain and sh-it ink

 

went in and got it booked today, for next saturday.

ive gone for the forearm, opposed to the inner bicep

 

Christ i wish i could book that quick, my guy has an 8 - 12 week waiting list :scared:

 

iv got 1 on my ribs n it was pretty bearable. the tattooist said the less fat u have the less it hurts as they dont need 2 push the needle in so far.
