Answer 1

I got mine done a couple of months ago, and it was one of the worst it's a really sensitive spot. It hurts but it's tolerable. It took about three weeks to a month to heal completely, and it was hard to sleep with. Honestly tattoos take a lot longer to heal than you'd think. Use A&D ointment 2-3 times a day, but don't over do it. Keep it moist but not too moist. Other than that I say go for it.

I don't think the inner forearm hurts too much.  I went with a friend of mine when she got her forearm done, it didn't seem to phase her too much.  But yes it does depend on how much you can take and of course the skill of the artist.  

You should be fully healed between 1-2 weeks.  Make sure your keeping it clean and using a tattoo specific or A&D ointment to help the healing process.  Don't go swimming because some of the color might fade because of the chemicals in a pool.  Try to stay out of direct sunlight as much as you can.  Your artist should go over a care plan with you.

Enjoy your ink!!
