Tattoos – 5 Most Painful Places To Get A Tattoo



Have you ever wondered where the 5 worst and most painful places were to get a tattoo on your body? You should be giving this some careful thought as pain can be outrageous if you pick one of these spots for your tattoo:

1. On the top of your Foot or Ankle. They look cute, but due to the absence of fat tissue around the ankle, it can be quite painful

2. Behind the Ear – Little skin, bone, and sensitive nerves. Also it will be shown at all times, something else to consider, unless you can hide it with long hair

3. The Chest – Right above your Rib Cage – Again there is thin skin in this area of the body

4. Eyeballs, Eye Brows, and Lips are also very painful. Yes, in fact, people do tend to get their eyeballs colored with permanent makeup. For example it helps a person with blind eye look more normal

5. The mons pubis and the land down under. There are a lot of nerves down there for both men and women. Tattooing can be painful to say the least as this was not intended for these sensitive areas

Please give it some thought when you are considering where you want to put your next tattoo!

You want to enjoy this experience, especially if you have a low pain threshold!

Hawaiian Flower Tattoos – Orchid, Plumeria and Hibiscus Tattoo



Hawaiian flower tattoos are exotic and beautiful and not as cliché as rose or lilies. They can be an expression of one’s heritage if he or she is originally from the island. Or it can also be a representation of one’s unforgettable moments spent in Hawaii; the island being considered as a perfect getaway and vacation spot because of its beaches, fresh air and natural scenery. While some have significant meaning attached to the design, a lot of enthusiasts also choose this theme just for its sheer beauty and artistic appeal.

The most popular Hawaiian flowers are hibiscus, plumeria and orchid. Each flower has its own symbolism and individual characteristics. Hibiscus stands for delicate beauty as the bloom of the flowers are open for just a short period everyday. Hibiscus, in fact, has been called “Flower-on-an-hour”. Plumeria is a flower commonly used as tattoo designs along side hibiscus as if to complete the whole Hawaiian flower theme. In the island, it is the flower traditionally used as a lei, it will always say “Aloha”. Orchid is also prominent in Hawaiian and used as lei too, just like plumeria. It can stand for a lot of things like love, beauty, wisdom, and thoughtfulness.

Hawaiian flower tattoos can be seen incorporated with other imagery that the island is known for like sea turtles, mountains, surfboard and tiki. They are best executed on the body in full color to make them more visually appealing. They are also usually seen in a tribal style – with thick black lines and little accent of color or detail. They would look good as sleeve tattoos, or on the foot, shoulder blade, back, rib cage and lower back.
