Question about tattoos!?

Well, the pain varies for people, not just for their tolerance level, but because every artist has a different "hand". Basically what this means is some of them press down really hard, which is why we call them "heavy handed" while others aren't so heavy handed. It also depends on the style of the lettering, or designs, and the type of needle(s) the artist needs to use. Color tends to hurt the most, or shading, because the artist has to go over and over it until he/she is sure it looks ok, and won't fade. I have an entire full color 3/4 sleeve done that took 14 hours to complete due to the detailing. For yours, i think the place would depend on whether or not you want to build on the design. The wrist is nice, but its so common, I prefer something a bit different, it might look nice on your shoulder or on your forearm. It hurts more when the needles bounce off the bone. Basically feels like someone's running a razor through your skin, but it gets numb after a while so it's not so bad. Best of luck :)
