tattoo questions
Okay so im planning on getting two tattoos....a palm tree on my ankle...and one on my inner bottom lip....if anyone has tattoos here could you rate them on a scale of 1-10 10 being most painful? thanks!!
ps...i already have a tattoo on my foot, and one on my wrist....and my bellybutton pierced...so if you could compare it to that...it would be helpful!!! thanks!

why on your inner bottom lip? sounds like alot of pain for just you to see it.... no offense but those are ugly in my opinion... to each their own!0 -
Sorry hun, but I'm of no help there. I have three tattoos and one of them covers my entire "down stairs" and none of them hurt. I guess I have a high pain tolerance. lol0

It hurts so good, why ruin it with a number?

hahahahaha :P0 -
Everybody has thier own tolerence of pain. When I had mine done it felt like fingernails digging into flesh. No big deal, but that was on my shoulders. What's with the inner lip thing? Makes me think of tattooing a dog or horse! lol Is there a reason for this?? Just curious...0
-
I'm curious too...why the inside of your lip? I'm a tattoo virgin so maybe I just don't get it. But I'm also 'thrifty' too so it's seems it would be a waste of money if no one can see it. lol I'm not judging or anything...do whatever you like. I just have wondered about those lip tattoos before....:huh:0

the closer to the ankle the more it's gonna hurt, because of the lack of fatty tissue/muscle--tattoos over bones hurt--but I have several (including over my ankle and up my spine) and none are unbearable... and be aware that both those areas are subject to the ink falling out and bleeding through the lines...0

i've wanted one on the inside of my lip for quite sometime now.. absolutley NO one can see it unless you purposley show them so its like it would always be hidden

Hey, I have a small one on my ankle and it wasn't painful at all - plus it only took about 5 minutes, so not really anything to endure. I'd say the pain was about a 2.
I have a tribal design at the base of my back and I'd rate the pain for that one at about a 6, maybe a 7 at some points. It took about 20 minutes.
I have a design on my wrist that I had done in a traditional Thai bamboo style and it was so gentle and painless, maybe a 2 at most.
The tattoo down my spine was by far the most painful and the longest. I'd rate the pain as a 9 for that one. The tattooist was also pretty heavy-handed and pressed really hard (which does give the best results). But man I was glad when that one was over. It's also my favourite :-)0 -
I thought the one over my foot hurt more than the inside of my ankle.0

I have a butterfly on my ankle about an inch or so from my ankle bone, it was my first tattoo, and it didn't hurt bad at all. I'd say about a 3-40

Bottom lip of your mouth? Who would see it?
thats the point!!!0 -
lip tattoo, seems like allot of trouble for something that will be painful, scab up and be hard to keep dry after the tat, and only last about a year. Good luck with that because I've never heard anything good about those. And please do a spell check on it first.
All I can think of when I hear inner lip tat is Horse....

I have 7 tats and I slept thru 5 of them, it is not that your body can't handle pain, you brain is what processes it. Try meditation, I did meditation durring labor and didn't feel anytihng more than pressure.0

That intrigues me, dunno why, but it does, and I if I knew you better, (well hell) knew you at all, I think I'd ask you more about it and to possibly see it. But..... Yeah, I don't know you and so on. But still it intrigues me.
I have 4 myself and will be getting #5 soon. They are in a variety of places but I'd have to say the one on the inside of my wrist was the most uncomfortable process of them all. I fell asleep while getting the one done on my lower back. (Yep kids I have a tramp stamp! But I had it long before tramp stamps were cool!)
My 21 year old now has 2. We got her her first when she turned 18. My 14 year old says she wants her first to be on the inside of her lip. And it always makes me wonder if she's serious, or if she's testing me because she knows I don't find tattoos that big of a deal. However I don't see why she'd want one there. But, like someone else said, to each their own. And she's 14 she might change her mind. But I think that'd be a really tender spot because there's lot's of blood vessels and nerve endings there. Certainly more than in your arm or leg. So it does all depend on your pain tolerance.0 -
13 here. Calves are the lowest I've gone and plan on going. Peep my pics and you'll see my back tats. And saying that, I personally would never even THINK of getting my inner lip done due to knowing how much tattoos hurt in general and what it takes for them to heal. The inner lip is not a smooth surface like your skin and it's such a small, hard to manage, area to tattoo. I mean, when I think about the artist tryin to tattoo my inner lip, it just doesn't sound that easy....who's gonna hold the bottom lip down in the first place?? If you haven't already, I would HIGHLY recommend talking to your artist before absolutely deciding this is something you want to do.0

got a tattoo on m y ankle it hurt more then my back but not bad like a 3 or 4 maybe funny though when i was getting it done he must of hit something and my leg tensed up and i did not do it lol i had no control of the spasm the guy thought it was me doing it but i was like noo u hitting a nerve or something lmao it would not stop but the tattoo came out great lol0

Pain level depends on which lip:drinker:0

Why are people so concerned about whether or not anyone will see the OP's lip tattoo? *SHE* will know it's there, and that's really all that matters.
I have 7 tattoos in various places (including the ankle, but not the lip). I can only say, in good conscience, that one of them didn't hurt (back of my neck). The rest were excruciating in varying degrees. A lot will vary on your muscle tone, how heavy-handed your artist is, line work vs. shading, where you are in your menstrual cycle, etc. My advice to you is to just expect it to hurt, and then be pleasantly surprised if for some reason it doesn't.0 -
Is it going to be a bullseye0

My ankle tattoo didn't hurt at all..maybe a 2, tops. I have one on my foot, though (the top of it) that hurt pretty badly (8 or 9). When I had my bellybutton pierced, that didn't hurt too badly, and the ankle tat hurt even less, so there ya go. But that's just me.0

Is not the idead of being inked for outward proliferation of meaning subject to the opinion of others? I love ink, have 10, desire 10000000000000 more.
Why waste your money? Express it on the outside!0 -
I have 4 so far, 2 on my back and 2 on my chest . only one of them I even really felt and that was when he went over my spine was only maybe a 5 at the most . But then again I love the feeling and slept through both chest piece sections lol0
-
I actually kinda like the idea, i guess i just like little secrete things.. idk i think its a neat idea.... i kinda want a black light tattoo for the same reason, so that you can only see it when i decide to show you..0
