Yes its worth doing, just make sure you are 100% about the design you want on you because tattoo removal is what hurts. Everyone has a different pain tolerance but in general a tattoo doesn't really hurt it feels like a bee sting at first thing it goes numb after about 2 minutes. The only time you might feel pain is on a curve or bone, but it will just feel like a quick shot. A tattoo is quite tolerable.

No one can answer this question but yourself. In my opinion none of mine hurt, but I can handle pain.

My best friend he pasted out on his tattoos. It just all depends on how you deal with pain.

Are they worth getting? It all depends on who you talk to. Some people think they are nasty but some people like myself think they are worth it. I love all my tattoos and plan on getting more.

So mainly it's to each their own. These are questions for yourself and not anyone else to answer.

it's totally worth getting a quality tattoo from a quality artist

pain is part of the experience and you shouldn't try to minimize it

everyone feels a tattoo differently

someone will tell you the ankle is the worst, for me it was nothing at all, barely felt it

i will tell you that the top of my foot and back of my shoulder hurt most of all. others will say it didn't hurt so much

my thigh and top of my left shoulder didn't hurt much.

thigh was more of a hot dull scratchy pain. shoulder top was a prickling feeling

it's all relative to the individual

and YES all mine are worth it and i can't wait to add more!!!

it ruins your skin, can give you cancer, and can look trashy.

Even if it were painless it is not worth it. You are making a permanent scar. If you get tired of the design, you can't get rid of it. You can only modify it by altering the scar or by putting makeup over it.

From what i heard it all depends on the person. What some say hurt, some people might not think so. But it all depends on how big, well since you said small it shouldn't be too bad,like at first it hurts but its ok. It all depends on your tolerance for pain!

Hope that helped!

Oh yeah, if it means alot and if you thought about it carefully then yeah, go for it!!!!

It doesn't hurt that bad, if you tune out the pain it won't hurt!

ask yourself that question. no one else can tell you if a tattoo is worth getting. remember it's on your body forever, so be wise. and yes i don't care what anyone else says they DO hurt. irritatingly hurt. backs and sides are the worst, but try it for yourself! and good luck

It doesn't hurt much at all, it's like a constant scratch, and it all depends on what you want. For me they are definitely worth it, if you want one get it.

Getting a tattoo can hurt, but the level of pain can vary. Because getting a tattoo involves being stuck multiple times with a needle, it can feel like getting a bunch of shots or being stung by a hornet multiple times. Some people describe the tattoo sensation as "tingling." It all depends on your pain threshold, how good the person wielding the tattoo machine is, and where exactly on your body you're getting the tattoo. Also, keep in mind that you'll probably bleed a little.

I got a tattoo on my Lower Back didn't hurt at all.

Also got a tattoo on my foot,getting the tattoo done wasn't sore at all but i was bedridden for 5 days after due to swelling of foot.I was in pain for 2 weeks and after all the pain i would diff do it again.cause i am thrilled with the art on my foot.I do have to get it touched up and i am so looking forward to the finish tattoo.

Make sure you choose a tattoo you really want cause you fo have to live with it for the rest of your live(You know that already im sure)

Good Luck!

I don't think this question warrants a response.

This procedure isn't or shouldn't be about what anyone else thinks.

Is it worth it to you?

Yes it hurts. You're dragging a needle across your skin.

How bad does it hurt, now that's another story. Think about this... if it hurt that bad, then we'd all only have one.

I guess they say the same thing about child birth though :)
