Tattoo FAQs Common Questions When Getting a Tattoo DOES IT HURT?
This is probably the most common and most frequently asked question by those who have never been tattooed. Of course it hurts to be tattooed! It generally hurts when needles are inserted into your skin! Luckily it is not so much that you can’t deal with the pain. Each person has a different tolerance to pain. Factors such as where the tattoo is being applied can also affect how painful it is. The more relaxed you feel the better. Don’t use anesthetics of any kind, and never mix tattooing with alcohol. Being drunk while being tattooed will not really numb the pain and will cause you to bleed much more.
