Getting A Tattoo
So i was thinking of getting a tattoo for my 17th birthday…wich isn’t until next year so i have alot of time to thing about this
But I’m worried about the pain, and where i should get it. As someone who is not fond of needles, i would really appreciate it if someone could tell me where it hurts most to get it done
P.S., i was thinking of getting Roman numerals of my b-day as the tattoo. Because i know i wouldn’t regret that
just trying to find a place to put it

Where were you?
You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
If you’re not sure don’t do it. You don’t want to end up regretting it later.
Im sure about getting it, and what its going to be, i just would like to have some info on it before i give it the go
I wouldn’t get Roman numerals as a tattoo, 17 is not really a benchmark age.
Lets see, i’ve heard it stings alot afterwards, which is why they usually give you stuff to put on it.
Shouldn’t be too bad as long as you can take pain :)
It does not hurt a whole lot, unless you have it done on your sides or neck or any sensitive area. it is more annoying than painfull
I have 10 , the ones on my chest hurt the most, they’re all of someone I love , Mom Dad,brother, sister , don’t get something whith no meaning usually they come back to haunt you when you get older .When they represent a loved one or something important to you, you tend not to be sorry you got them.
dont you have to be 18 and i heard it doesnt hurt if i was to have one i would have it where no one could see it but me at least my first one
Some people i know who have gotten tattoos tell me different things,
like “It didn’t hurt at all”
and some say “I could barely take the pain”
Where as my mom who had one done on her lower back said she couldn’t even take the pain, they never finished her tattoo; It was supposed to be filled in with Black but she left it white. It looks fine but she said she couldn’t sit there and have it finished it hurt so bad
But i just think my mom is a wuss.
As this is my first tattoo, its not going to be HUGE, and some ugly place like on my *** or neck or above the shoulders
i was thinking my Back, My arm or maybe even my stomach
And i thought Roman numerals would look good, and it has meaning to me because my parents had a had a boy before me, and he died of heart failure four days after he was born, which prompted my parents to have another kid (me) because they wanted to have a family of 4. If my brother would have survived, i wouldn’t be here today. Kind of a scary thought. But having my birthday tattooed on me is something special, and i love the roman culture and i thought it would be really cool to have it tattooed in roman numerals, i thought it would look really good
and where i live you can be 16 but have to have parental consent
one of my girlfriends had one on the top of her foot and it looks really good. and if you want to cover it up you can she said it didnt hurt that bad
i was thinking somewhere where it could be seen, but i could cover it up if i wanted
the foot would be really cool, but the way my birthday works out in roman numerals it comes out to be pretty large
So unless i wanted the tattoo squished in my foot, i’ have to get it done someplace where theres more room
ya it was a idea but the lower back is pretty cool
it was a good idea!
The only thing with the lower back is the whole “Tramp stamp” factor. I dont want it to look trashy
you might mmm the arm i think looks kinda masculine

what about the shoulder
across the bottom of the back looks good on girls
thats true.
Shoulder would be good, it would definitely fit there I’m sure
you mean like across the shoulders?
sorry.. i have not read all the replies.. however this is how it felt to me..
as with getting a tattoo.. there are i believe 3 needles that do the outline.. and 7 that do the coloring.. so as they are “drawing” on you.. to me.. it felt like i was being cut a little.. you dont feel the pricks of the needles.. but what you get in the end is worth all the pain.. good luck..
It does hurt abit but it is worth it
My mom called it “Being scratched deeply by a cat’s claws” is what it felt like
I feel like its worth it too
i just don’t want the pain to be so bad i cant finished the tattoo
I think i can handle tattoo needles..i just don’t like syringes
yap and then you dont have to show it too everyone unless you want to and then if you decide you dont like it in ten years it wont show that bad
i guess the getting old factor comes in
i dont want it being all saggy by the time i am 50
cause im probably not going to have it removed
so the shoulders or the lower back would be a good place to have it
what build are you
I’d say im around 5′3-5′4
skinny, muscular
120 lbs
then bottom of the back will look good if you were bigger then shoulder would of been better
i allways thought i would be cool to get a really cool bible verse for mine
i love it when people have a bunch of words on their bodies as tattoos
i think it looks really good
ha it would be kinda funny if they spelled a work wrong lol
I was thinking about getting footprints its a god thing but its good
I know people who have had Chinese symbols tattooed on them and it turns out its not what they thought it was
Footprints would look really cool
what are foot prints?
footprints is like a poem
type footprints into google
Theres this rapper i saw a picture of him and he has a bunch of sentences on his chest, i thought it looked really good

so are you closer to decideing if your getting a tattoo and were
yeah i think so
i’d probably say i would like to get it on my lower back now
i dont know how big its going to turn out to be, but i sure hope it fits
lower back looks sexy

Well the truth of the matter is that your skin is going to be saggy and ugly ANYWAY, so what’s the big deal if it’s got a picture on it too?
I’ve heard its not that painful to get the tattoo, but it itches like a beast afterwards.
lol sounds good
i think it would be worth it!
i think its going to be lower back
