harrycatcat 31 Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Its 36 years since I had any tattoos but I can still remember it hurt. Yours must have been painful. Worst is when they scab up try not to scratch it otherwise some of the colour will come out and it will look a f*cker. Good luck ps my first tattoo cost40p Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Missie 1 Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Looks nice WH. None of my tattoos hurt that much but then i've been told I have a fairly high pain threshold. The one I have on my back was painful as it went over my spine but not unbearable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
