side tattoos for girls quotes image
Little Mon
I'm going to get 'Don't hide yourself in regret, just love yourself and you're set.' tattooed in cursive on the left side of my rib-cage, in black ink. I've heard a lot of stories saying it hurts really badly. But if it's just a quote, and nothing huge that will require shading, will it still hurt a lot?
Also, will I have to take my shirt completely off for this?
Answer
Lovely quote. The thing you need to know is that rib cage tattoos are not only painful. they are awkward. You need to stay very still for it, i have seen some very screwed up rib tattoos from people being in pain and uncomfortable who moved too much. ALSO, outlines are typically the most painful part of a tattoo, the fill and colour is the easy part. So getting words may not take as long as something super detailed or something huge, but it is all outline.
if you're a girl, the worry with rib tattoos is taking your shirt off. Tattoo artists are used to seeing lots of skin, and they are professionals. It is like going to the doctors, nothing they havent seen hundreds of times. That being said, you want to be comfortable!! covering breast, stomach, whatever you dont like to show is important for your comfort. Ask you artist what he prefers you wear or what you can use to cover yourself. He may recommend taping something over yourself.that's probably what I myself would end up doing because you cant wear a bra because of the strap.

How much does a traditional pin up girl tattoo cost?

I am getting ready to get my first tattoo and I have always wanted a traditional style pin up girl like a nurse or a mermaid. I'd prefer to get it on my side or calf. It's going to be 7- 7 1/2 in. In color. Which location do you think would hurt more?
Cheers,
Sam
Answer
Loaded question. Most artists charge around $150/hr, but will normally quote you on a piece. I've got two tattoos that cost me $150 and took 4-5 hrs (including breaks, etc.) and one that cost $350 (and took about the same amount of time). All depends on the artist and what you want to do. Straight American Traditional, no shading....who knows, but probably would take 2-3 hours tattoo time, depending on the design.
Also, it makes a difference whether you're looking at doing something like this - http://lucky7tattoo.net/uploads/Russell-Fortier-mermaid-pin-up.jpg

Shading and detail take a long time and a good artist, but not every artist can do a good American traditional tattoo like the mermaid. Find out what artist(s) specialize in what techniques in your area.
Ribs reputedly hurt a bit more than other areas, but I will say my calf burned like white hot coals as opposed to my shoulder/bicep area. Calves are far from you heart, so much more difficult in healing.

OMG....have to disagree with the guy below me. I LOVE pinup art. If you have it, women who like it will like you and let me tell you, a lot of hot girls LIKE pinups (and girls). Women are pretty. Why not? Especially if it's "tasteful" (ie ...no boobies without shells or a bikini top, okay???)
