What age did you get your first tattoo? Did it hurt?

    I had my first at 19. Anyone who says it didn't hurt is lying or using numbing cream, the level/severity of pain however is quite subjective.

    18 and it was awesome. As said above, hurt is subjective. I fell asleep during my back tattoo. The "pain" is there, but at this point I'm addicted to it, and quite enjoy it, so does it realy hurt anymore?

    that pic in the OP is now classified as child pornography...I'd appreciate it if you removed it from this site.

    It doesn't give me any option to delete. How can I delete the post?
