Tattoo and permanent makeup: painful areas on the human body

Having decided on the first or next tattoo, any responsible person must carefully plan its location on the body.

What are the principles for choosing a tattoo

• the meaning that the drawing has or that the owner "instills" into it;
• color - monotonous tattoo or color;
• size - depends on whether the owner of the drawing wants to expose it to the public eye or a small sketch is planned, which can easily be hidden under a shirt sleeve or under a leg;
• style - after all, the same motive can be performed using different methods, getting an excellent result;
• location on the body, regarding the quality of the healing of the tattoo, the frequency of possible corrections, pain.

Pain is quite a subjective concept. There is an erroneous opinion that women, for the most part, tolerate the process of stuffing more easily. Simply put, their pain threshold is higher in some parts of the body. However, this is not the case. The individual perception of pain depends on many factors, up to self-hypnosis, when the client came cheerful and cheerful, and after the first rubbed drops of blood he began to get nervous and twitch.

Advice to the master: use black gloves during work - they do not show traces of blood and paint, clients are easier to endure this picture emotionally!

The experts have developed an approximate table of sensitivity, which can only be used as a generalization. After all, for some, a needle puncture is a slight discomfort, but for someone it is a reason for panic.

Very painful - feet, ribs, abdomen, chest, groin.

It hurts - wrists, shoulder blades, face, ankles, neck, inner thigh.

Tolerant - the middle of the back, lower back, forearm.

Quite tolerable - shoulders, hips on the outside, calves.

Such a gradation can be controversial, since there were cases when strong and hardened men could hardly endure a session on the calves, although there the area is as far as possible from the bone and, in theory, should not be so painful. For example, getting a tattoo on the elbow is much more unpleasant. The same applies to the hands - someone equates the process of making a tattoo in this area with a mosquito bite, but for someone this is the most painful place.

Do not forget that proper preparation for the procedure will make it easier to transfer it, and the use of a high-quality anesthetic will completely simplify the task. Before the start of the procedure, as a rule, primary (cream) anesthesia is applied, which is covered and kept under the film for a certain amount of time.
