THE 5 MOST PAINFUL TATTOO SITES

We’ve all heard of how painful tattoos can be, but did you know that some sites can be significantly more painful than others? Many people get a tat on their bicep to find that the pain isn’t nearly as bad as they had anticipated. Then they go in for a simple ankle tat, and it’s a whole different story! Generally, tattoos are the most painful when done in areas with a great deal of bone and/or nerve endings. The following 5 body sites are the most painful places get tattoos:

1. Ankle: These tats are simply, classy, and fun, but getting them inked on is no laughing matter! Your food is basically skin and bone. Therefore, there is very little fat to cushion the sting of the tattoo pen. Many individuals who get tattoos on the ankle report a very uncomfortable and prominent burning sensation on the tattoo site.

2. Back of ear: This is a very trending site to get a tattoo these days. However, it is also very painful. The back of your ear of comprised of a thin layer of skin and bone, which makes it among the most painful tattoo sites on the body.

3 & 4: Eyebrows and lips are also painful spots to have ink implemented. Basically, if you’re having ink put anywhere on your face, it’s going to hurt significantly more than on a meatier part of your body.

5. Eyeball: This probably goes without saying, but the fronts of the eyes are filled with nerve endings. Whenever possible, many people choose to get anesthesia when having this procedure done. Furthermore, eyeball ink doesn’t last long.
