Does it hurt?

Tattoos are known to hurt when they are being performed, but the pain is not intolerable.

Certain places on the body hurt more than others, and I'm sure we can all guess where it would! That's correct, if you are thinking of getting a tattoo on your genitals, then you have picked the most painful place to do so, as these are very sensitive areas of your body that tend to have a lot of nerve endings - which bring pain.

However these areas are not the only particularly sensitive places. Your sternum, ribs, hands, and feet are very sensitive.

Next most sensitive areas would be your ankles, lower back, neck, under arm, around the groin area, and head.

The least sensitive areas, and generally most popular for that reason, are your upper arms or forearms, calves, shoulder blade, outer thigh, and bottom.

It's also true that each person has different tolerances and some people do not have trouble getting tattooed about anywhere. Women who have birthed children or people who have been through surgeries often say that tattooing is just not that big of a deal, whereas people who have never experienced any extreme to moderate pain often find tattooing to be more difficult or even "quite" painful.

Think about it this way... A lot of people who get Tattoos come back for more, so it can't be THAT bad...
