Quote:It doesn\'t hurt at all, that\'s only a myth. There is never any penetration of the skin, the ink is placed on top and slowly absorbs itself under the skin, where it stays. People have developed stories over the years claiming that tattoos cause pain and discomfort, but that\'s just because they\'re trying to sound tough.

I really hope that was sarcasm, cuz you cant tell in type.
Dont let anyone lie to you. TATTOOS HURT. Its a needle penetrating skin thousands of times. There are places on the body that hurt more than others. A good rule is the closer proximity to bone, the more it will hurt. More padding equals less pain. A tattoo on the upper arm, or on the ass hurt less than ribs or head.
Some areas such as the back of the upper arm and stomach are more sensitive than other "padded" areas
Tattoos hurt, but they won\'t kill you.
