OK dudes
So just wondering
I know its going to hurt duh, but is it like a bearable pain?
Because its on my foot right, and I know someone who fainted while they got their foot done,
An it was a hell of a lot smaller than mine paha!
Thanks xx

Pain is subjective. What might hurt me enough to make me faint might only be a discomfort to you.

Would you wear sandals or pumps or something?
Because I normally wear converse but obviously would have trouble getting them on after lol :S

My friend is 6' 3" about 250lb he got a tat across his back as soon as he started he turned green and passed out. I am 5'6" 150lbs got a tat on my back and laughed the entire time because it tickled. So as J_9 said it is subjective.

I agree. Remember the less fatty areas are going to be more painful than areas with more cushion. Feet hurt. My roommate has 27 tattoos and said none of them really even phased her but the foot tattoo made her cry. So, as stated above, it depends on your pain tolerance.

I had my first tattoo last year. I was scared as hell but it turned out to be OK. I was expecting extreme pain but in fact it is bearable. But I guess it is very much depends on each individual pain tolerance. I've been told that I have a high tolerance.

As the others have said, it all depends on your threshold for pain.
I'd recommend you wear flip flops so that you won't have to leave without a shoe. You certainly wouldn't want to put a shoe over a fresh tattoo!

I have a tat on my ankle, didn't really hurt, just felt uncomfortable. But, like everyone else has said, it depends on the person.
The foot can be more painful.
Good luck, we'd love to see pictures once it heals.
