What are the most painful places to get tattoos?

Question

i want to get a tattoo on my foot well closer to the ankle (that little place where there is only skin. i have no idea what its called... its like inbetween the ankle and that little area that looks like wrinkles on your foot.

would that place hurt?

Answer 1

I have several tattoos- and one thing is true- the less fat, and the more the bones are poking out, the more it is going to hurt!  But I have always compared getting a tattoo to this- pinch your self really hard under your arm by your pit.  that sting is what it feels like.

Answer 2

The most painful places to get tattoos are ribs, feet, and neck.

It will hurt, every tattoo hurts.  But if you really want it then it's worth it in the end.

Answer 3

ye it hurts quite a bit on your foot because there's a very thin layer of fat there. the ribs hurt a lot to and the back on the knee. - again because there's not a lot of fat there .

basically the closer you are to a bone (or any other internal workings)  the more it'd hurt!

Answer 4

Yep. It'll hurt.  I have one on each ankle in the same place.  But if it's what you want, then go for it.

But I'm guessing that PRISON is probably the most painful place to get a tattoo

Answer 5

on the genitals

Answer 6

some what yes it only depends on yr pain toleration ok if you tolerate pain then it wont hurt !!!!!!!!

Answer 7

I have both of my feet and ankles almost completely covered and in my opinion none of it hurt that bad.  Pain is really a personal thing. What hurts one person might not hurt the next or it could hurt them even more.To me it also seems the more tattoos I get the less they hurt.  Also the bigger the tattoo the more it seems to hurt do to the skin and body already being aggrivated.  Also the tattooist themselves seems to affect if the tattoo hurts more, some have heavier hands that hurt more. Bottom line is that it just depends on you and your body. There is no way to know if it will or will not hurt you. In the end thou, pain is only temporary and goes away.  The tattoo lasts forever. In my opinion/experience if you want the tattoo bad enough you don't even think or worry about the pain.  If your that worried about it, you don't want the tattoo bad enough and you should wait.  Just remember whatever pain there is will be gone once they are done and you will have an awesome tattoo forever. Good Luck!

Answer 8

Oh definitely. All places hurt, but the places with the thinnest cushioning and skin hurt the most. Wrists, feet, hands, armpits, hipbones, collarbones, etc.

Meaty places like arms and legs hurt less, but they still hurt like crazy.

Answer 9

even if you have a high pain tolerance, that part will probably still hurt quite a bit.  

Answer 10

yes, as there is very little fatty cushion in this area.

Answer 11

Where it's bony. It will hurt more. It's a tattoo life /http://www.realworldtattoos.com/
