I'm curious to see how you can cry with style... I just know that I for one am not attractive in the slightest when the tears are flowing lol
You can buy numbing cream if that helps! But I think the pain is part of the experience, makes me feel like I earned it lol.
ooo well I do like icecream! That could help a lot But yes I can understand what you mean - part of the process is a bit of pain! No pain no gain lol!
For some reason I just had a really weird visual of you, Shay, chowing down on Ben & Jerry's, whilst getting a tat, making random faces of pain I know that's not what you were going for, but still, amusing Then again, maybe that's a good distraction technique? Ideally the person will know what they're doing anyways, so it wouldn't take half a century for them to complete it! No newbies allowed!
I'll just pass out probably - I feel that would be an effective way of not knowing what's going on! "AAAH! OW OW OW - *zonk*"
Well I'd be knocked out and not be aware of what's going on then! Or if I don't manage to pass out, just knock me out with force or something. But then again if I don't get knocked out from that, I'll just have a nasty bruise which be pretty unattractive, and then I'd have two parts of my body that are in pain. hmm... I got nothing, so guess I'm gonna grin and bear it! Plus a part of me would likely be anal and want to watch just to make sure the tattoo artist is doing it right
See, I'm paranoid now - I don't want to wake up and have a massive picture of stitch tattooed on my face. No no. No no. Time to enforce methods of distraction instead!
You guys are funny. Its really not that bad... yes it hurts but trust me, it looks worse than it really is. Although, if you get tattooed for a long time, then it gets painful but for these little tats you're speaking of, it wouldn't hardly tickle Besides, its in the name of disney right??
Well I don't know if I'd go as far as call it a tickle... But again, I'm prob blowing things out of proportion a bit! haha ...or a lot... : It's always in the name of Disney!!
Ok a tickle may not be giving it enough credit lol, maybe more like when you have someone give your back a scratch and they do it too hard and you ask them to do it softer and they refuse to listen lol... thats my closest comparison and then after 2 hrs its like a continuous bee sting - ouch
I liked it better when you called it a tickle I'll just resort to my tactic whenever I have to have blood taken or something. I say the alphabet. Oh yeah, I'm hardcore.
gah needles!! Although a girl I work with had a tattoo done yesterday and she said it didn't hurt for the most part... hmmmm...
Yeah, so long as it's not huge, I'm sure it can't be that bad! After all, there are those shows on TLC that show people getting tattooed, and they usually seem fine! Granted, maybe they've had tattoos done so many times they've lost all sense of feeling, but I like to think otherwise
hers was big though, and she said it was manageable! I think honestly piercings are harder for me to grasp than tattoo's even!
Depends where the piercing is - because at least those are quick! But the healing process is another story... those can become quite nasty if they get infected :-\ I'm pumped though about this little tattoo down the road though, despite any kind of cringing reaction I may have
that's freaky too - the infection! Unfortunately I am very afraid of pain and can't put myself through things like tattoos and piercings - I wish I could!
