Yes, getting a tattoo does involve pain – but the intensity depends on the placement, size of the tattoo, and each person’s pain tolerance.
- For small to medium tattoos that take under 2 hours, most clients find the discomfort quite manageable.
- Your body also naturally releases endorphins – hormones that help reduce pain and stress – which is why many people even find the experience relaxing, or become ‘addicted to tattooing.’
