According to a study , a whopping 38 percent of people 18 to 29 years old have been inked at least once in their lives.
So getting a tattoo is generally always painful, though people may experience different levels of pain. People who are biologically male tend to experience and cope with pain differently from those who are biologically female. In addition, the various parts of the body experience different levels of pain when tattooed. While there is no scientific evidence that says which areas of the body will feel the most and least pain when getting inked, we gathered anecdotal information from sites run by people in the tattoo industry.
The most painful places to get tattooed are those with the least fat, most nerve endings, and thinnest skin. Bony areas usually hurt a lot. Everyone experiences pain in different ways. The placement of your tattoo, as well as what your sex is, can affect the pain.
Pain in these areas may be high to severe. The armpit is among the most painful places, if not the most painful place, to get tattooed. In fact, most tattoo artists advise against people getting armpit tattoos. The rib cage is probably the second most painful place for most people to get tattooed. Pain here can be severe.
Also, every time you breathe, you move your rib cage and the skin above it, which can make the feeling of being tattooed here much more intense. Your ankle bones and shinbones lie just beneath thin layers of skin, making it very painful to be tattooed in these areas.
Ankle and shin tattoos usually cause severe pain. Your groin is filled with nerve endings that can be irritated by tattoo needles.
Pain here can be high to severe. Your elbows and kneecaps are areas where your bones lie just beneath your skin. Vibrations caused by tattooing over bone can cause high to severe pain.
This is another part of the body where you may experience severe pain when being tattooed. The area behind your knees has loose, stretchy skin with many nerve endings. These characteristics make this area very sensitive to tattoo needles. Because your hip bones lie just below your skin, getting hip tattoos can cause severe pain. This is especially true if you are very thin and have less fat around your hips to cushion your hip bones.
Neck and spine tattoos are known to be among the most painful tattoos because the neck and spine are very sensitive areas. Like the neck, your head, face, and ears contain many nerve endings that can be irritated during a tattoo and may cause severe pain. The skin on and around your lips is generally loose with lots of nerve endings. A tattoo on your lips will almost certainly cause severe pain, and could lead to bleeding, swelling, and bruising.
The tops and insides of the hands and feet, as well as fingers and toes, are popular places to be tattooed. Being tattooed anywhere on your hands and feet can cause severe pain. The skin here very thin, and it contains numerous nerve endings that can trigger pain when hit by a tattoo needle. Does getting the color and shading hurt as bad as More needles equals more surface area and less pain. I think most people will say that the color hurts less if they get it done the same time as the outline, by the time they move onto the color and shading the area is already pretty numb.
Pain question. Which sucks more, outlining or shading Because its on fresh skin and you are feeling it wherever the artist goes. The shading and coloring is already on raw skin and it is not a small needle like the outline. At least color and shading have a row of needles to scrape across as apposed to being stabbed by one. What hurts more for tattoos, outline or shading and It was definitely worth it though and am going back for more, I suppose it depends on your pain threshold, if you are worried about the pain get a tattoo that won't take too long as it Author: expertvillage.
