    Thinking of getting a tattoo on my foot at the weekend, just a little flower or something, has anyone got one and how sore was it? I am a total wuss when it comes to pain.

    itl hurt more than usual because theres not much fat on your feet so its just thin layer of skin. just pop a painkiller after its done and youl be fine, eating before getting the tattoo helps alot also

    I just got a tattoo on my foot last Monday, six stars from my toe to my ankle, it was my first tattoo aswell. To be honest I didn't find it too bad I actually expected it to be alot worse it was more of a nagging kinda pain nothing excruciating, more annoying, if it helps I even giggled a bit in certain places, ticklish pain!:)

    I dunno about that. I have both mine done. And in saying that, they are bigger than stars and whatever.

    My right foot was fine. No worries there. The left hurt. Nothing major, but yes. It hurts.

    I got a little one done, just beside my baby toe on my left foot and it hurt just a little bit. Nothing major, plus it was a little ticklish in places also. I'd say go for it... only thing about mine is people keep standing on my foot... it's because of the type of tattoo though...

    I have both my feet done - relatively large designs that cover the whole top of each foot down to where my toes start. I found it totally excruciating -- the worst of all my tattoos by a long shot. But these things are so subjective, and some people handle pain much better than others anyway, so it could well be fine for you.
