Sana's first tattoo

This is just as the outline is being finished on the second elephant - both elephant tattoos were then shaded in the same sitting.

Sana's custom elephant tattoo done by Mim Dabbs at Darwin City Tattoo, Darwin, NT Australia. Video made by Lori St.Leone.

my friend told me that when ever i get a new tattoo that i just take my mp3 player with me and just listen to my music because it helps you calm down

it might be hurting more cuz ur holding ur breathe and that makes u tense up. i got my first one a few months ago. we did it in two sessions bc i had wording and images n there was an image behind the wording and we wanted the wording to pop..but there were def sections that hurt worse than others. but when i would hold my breathe my artist told me not to

No, it really depends on how tiny the sticker you got tattooed on you is and whereo n the body you got it. Trust me, pumpkin, I've been a professional body modification artist for going on thirteen years!

[fletcherkane]

It has a lot to do with placement and size - chest tattoos are generally considered one of the more ouchy parts of the body, along with rubs and stomach! It's incredibly stupid to say that "tattoos don't hurt" - I have fifty+ hours of tattooing and I felt every bit of it.
