    Where abouts on your arm??

    On the wrist and at the top of the forearm... where it joins the top part of your arm... over the elbow????? Thats where it hurts the most imo...

    Other than that it would be sore but not that bad ya know?

    I found getting tattoos on the arm did nt hurt at all, no pain whatsoever, got one on the inside of the wrist and one on the front of the upper arm. go for it and dont worry bout it.

    honestly the first minute or so u will feel it but after that the skin naturally goes numb and it won't bother u any more.

    If the tat is small u'll not even get to the numb stage, don't worry about the pain, its not that bad, my last session was 3 hrs and most of that was on my ribs, i tend to chew chewing gum, relax body and stay still lmao

    Go for it ya know ya want to ;)
