[QUOTE=nickynicole]My best friend just got a lip tattoo. She said it hurt like hell.[QUOTE]
Comparatively to other tattoos, it hurt a little bit worse, but ultimately felt VERY different... I didnt feel the vibration of the gun at all (i had to air-dry the lip for quite some time before he could start working on it, so it was pretty numb) it felt more similar to being cut, as though it was an exacto knife or something.
Funny thing was, with most lip tattoos, i was told by my artist, the ink will fall out within a month or two, it's a sensative area so it's hard to make it hold ink.... but, here i am, nearly four years after i had it done, and it's still the exact same, hardly faded at all. That picture is from right when the swelling died down. i'll take a couple shots of it this weekend and show you all a comparison on monday.
