Funny you guys should bring this up now. I'm getting a coverup tattoo over one of my old ones and the last session is on Wednesday. I agree that you should get something that means something only to you. As far as the pain goes, it's more like getting a really bad scratch when you're getting it done but afterwards is more like a bad sunburn. Get keep it covered for a couple of days then continue with the Neosporin or A&D for a couple of more days. Not much else to it. BTW, I've got seven total but been "under the needle" more times than that. One on my upper left arm, the back of my neck, my right shoulder, my lower back (a classic place), two next to my "privates" and one on my right ankle. It may seem like a lot but no one knows I have any unless I wear shorts or a tank top. AND yes, you do get addicted to the endorphines. I'm not sure if you want to get one on your hand/lower arm unless the type of profession you choose, would allow you to have one, meaning it's accepted. Most office type environments don't, FYI. I work in one and I like to see the expressions on their face when they see me on weekends. "Wow, I never knew YOU had tattoos!" Like WTF kinda comment is that? Most people get predisposed ideas about what type of people have tattoos. Hehehehe, I personally like it and find it attractive on men. Your mileage may vary.
