Does it hurt?
This is the first question in this FAQ because it’s usually the first question that people
ask. The answer is yes. Having needles pierce your skin *does* hurt. But what you
*really* want to know is, “How MUCH does it hurt, and can I handle it?”
It’s not nearly as bad as what you might imagine. The pain comes from the cluster
of needles on the tattooing machine piercing your skin very rapidly. This sensation,
however, doesn’t feel like the poking pain of an injection--it’s more of a constant
vibration. You will be amazed at how quickly your body releases endorphins, (pain
killers), which dullens the pain significantly.
The pain will also vary according to where on your body you get worked on. Skin
right above bones (collarbone, anklebone, etc.) tend to be more painful than other
areas. In addition, certain types of needles seem to hurt more than others. I person-
ally think the needles used for outlining produce a sharper, more noticeable pain,
while the needles used for shading seem to be much more like an electrical buzz
(nearly painless).
Remember, you are volunteering for the experience. The amount of pain will de-
pend on your psychological attitude.
NOTE: Do not drink alcohol or take illegal drugs for pain relief purposes prior to
your tattoo sessions. Both aspirin and alcohol thin your blood and promote exces-
sive bleeding. Aspirin also decreases the clotting of blood, which will slow down
your healing as well. In addition, artists do not appreciate dealing with drunks and
is illegal in many states.
What about anaesthetics?
Some people say that taking a couple of over-the-counter analgesics before tat-
tooing can take the edge off the pain. Acetaminophen, commonly sold under the
brand name ‘Tylenol’ is generally recommended, but not aspirin, ibuprofen, or oth-
er NSAIDs, as they tend to inhibit clotting. In short, you may find yourself bleed-
ing like the proverbial stuck pig. There *are* actually topical anaesthetics available,
even in the stick-up-its-butt U.S. For instance, Bactine contains some lidocaine, and
it is possible to buy benzocaine preparations over the counter. The drawback of
these is that they do not work on unbroken skin, but if they are applied after the
first pass with the needle, they *can* make a tremendous difference. EMLA is reput-
ed to be much better, and will work on unbroken skin, but it is not generally avail-
able in the U.S.
