    I've got probably eight tattoo ideas lined up, but this one is one of my favorites. This is to commemorate my time in the Navy. "Rooster on the right, never lose a fight. Pig below the knee, good luck at sea." "Hold Fast" is generally done on the knuckles (it's about never letting go of the line, no matter what," but I don't do hand tattoos.

    These will probably be my most painful tattoos. I was with my best friend when she got one tattoo on the top of her foot and she had to keep taking breaks. Feet tattoos are INCREDIBLY painful.

    And yes, arm tattoos are a piece of cake. None of mine hurt.

    This as a tattoo, seriously because it, accentuates my eyes; awesomely:

    It won't happen though because I am a sissy, when it comes to physical pain; that's just face paint! :'(

    Sorry a bit blurred. This was a memorial to my late Dad who grew roses and to my son Lucas who was stillborn and never got to spread his wings hence the butterfly. I have it on the inside of my wrist.

    Hoping to find an artist who can design a combination of the two images below, but with a pocket watch in the wolf's mouth with the words "Why wait? "

    I want this to match my other butterflies and hide my recent tummy tuck scar. Have to wait another 9-15 months though.

    I would think if you get a tattoo they would put numb scream on you're skin so you don't feel the pain.

    I didn't even know, that they did anything like that; I'll have to look into it! Thank you!

    I know they use numb cream on some stuff but I don't know if tattoo artist can use it . You would think they would .

    Regardless I'd prefer, to be unconscious!

    I've never had an artist use numbing cream because it can affect the outcome of the tattoo. Also, pro tip - NEVER drink alcohol prior to getting a tattoo. Any benefits of reducing pain will be lost to the increase of blood loss. Alcohol (or medications/drugs with similar effects) thins your blood, and if the artist can tell you've been drinking, they will send you away.

    Plenty of world renowned tattooist allow their clients to use numbing cream, particularly during long sessions on particularly painful areas like the chest/sternum. Not the white girl 'sternum tattoo' which is actually on their upper abdomen, but you over your actual sternum bone.

    A fidgeting client will have more negative effect on a tattoo than a numbing cream that's been applied, taken effect and then been wiped off.
