i got a tattoo on my upper arm last Wednesday... i didn't hurt as much as i thought it would... its just a outline of a banner with the word DILLIGAF printed in it & some grey filling in to make it look better...
it honestly didn't really hurt. but a friend said it would have hurt less if i'd gotten a tan in that area first... apparently if your skins had to heal from sunburn or a tan it is tougher and the tattooing(is this a word???) doesn't hurt as much.
i'm at the scabbing stage now, OMG its hard not to scratch!!!
just pat it the guy said...
well let me tell you... that doesn't get rid of the itch!
