First of all, congratulations on your first tattoo, but I'm warning you that they get addicting :)
Anyway, I don't have personal experience in the lower stomach region (mine are on my ankles, wrists, and chest), but I would think that the lower stomach would hurt less than the upper part. My tattoo artist said by the solar plexus hurt the worst.
I would think that the tragus and nose would hurt pretty bad since those are cartiledge, so it shouldn't hurt as bad as those, but I don't have either of those pierced...
Anyway, good luck and have fun!
It hurts. I have Love Life in Spanish across my lower stomach and it was pretty painful. Not overwhelming just really uncomfortable. Try wearing summer dresses or something similar without a waistband for the first few days of healing because it really hurts when your pants rub on it. Like really really bad!
Yea its a tender area. But we have some clients that don't make a sound and other clients that scream and say that it hurts. I think that you will do just fine . If it does start to hurt really bad always remember don't hold your breath that makes it worse. Do lomas breathing. In through your nose and out through your mouth.
Good luck
ok if u want my option dont do it under ur betty button!!!!! my best friend had a tatto there an she got pregnet shortly after an her tattoo stretched so bad its gross! an one ur tat stretches it will never look the same so id recamend getting it on another spot if possible
i have one on my lower stomach area. omg it hurt so bad. but halfway thru i numbed myself out. you have to do it on purpose (numbing out I mean). or else you will just have feeling of pain for the entire duration. I didn't want pain during it, so i found an awesome way to rid the pain. it worked very well.
