Tattoo pain scale for bicep / inner bicep / ditch
Hi everyone,
I'm planning to get a tattoo on my bicep / inner bicep. I have an outer forearm tattoo which was a 5/10 for me on pain, with the inner forearm being a 6-7/10 but a shorter session so not as bad.
How bad in your experience was your experience getting tattooed in the region photoed? I am not planning to go high up towards the armpit.
The session will last 5-6 hours, I have some experience but always find myself shaking around the 3 hour mark when the colour comes out. My artist discourages painkillers / blood thinners / numbing cream so am wondering how I can best prepare as I know it's typically a more sensitive spot.
Thanks
