depends on the detail and colours. if its just some stupid black thing, then you could do it in one sitting, and it won't hurt that much. but if you have lots of detail and shadding and colour, then its gonna hurt like hell and take more then one sitting i would think. some advice, take a few advils before you go in. it will slow the swelling and dull the pain. make sure its advil and not anything else, or you will bleed like crazy.
have fun, welcome to the addiction.

um actually I find that the shading and colour don't nearly hurt as much as the outline itself. If its a really complicated design with intricate detail then you're going to be in a hell of a lot of pain. Also it'll be less painful on the fleshier parts of your back.. usually when the needle goes over the bony areas it gets really painful. But good luck and remember pain is just a state of mind.. its whatever you make of it so just try and think of how happy you'll be with the outcome :)

So...you're the one influencing Dzierzgowski eh Konrad? He said the same thing to me today.
Now you guys can be tattoo buddies!!!!! So cooool!!!!!  I wanna be a part of it, except I'm asian, so I'd look like a fool with "Polska" tattoed on my back.That, and I'm not a fan of tattoos. This post is just...saturated with sarcasm. I'll go back to my corner now.

I KNEW it would be a Polska tattoo....haha....
It will hurt. But suck it up and take one for the team...or for you...if you really want it. Go to Wolf if you ever get a chance for another one...or if this one scares you away last minute. Wolf in New West...604-450-0649. He's wicked and charges very very fairly. *Jen* p.s. Kam got a new car today. Well, a truck. 2003 GMC Sonoma p.p.s. Good luck.

the only place that it ever hurt - like truely hurt - when i was gettin a tattoo done was on my achilles tendon, i had to lie down for it cause i kept holdin my breath. my mom and my brother both just got tattoos on there back\upper shoulder area and said it felt like a bad sun burn.
personally i found the outlining hurt more, donno why. my second tattoo the artist had a bit of a heavy hand... but after a while the pain dulls... just keep talkin to your artist, keep yourself calm. the adrenaline rush after wards is incredible, well for me it is. i cant wait for my next one.

when it goes across your spine, it'll hurt like a bitch. shoulder blades, not so bad.
i just got one on my neck... jugular + needle is definitely a unique sensation. anyone who gets PEROGIES done rules. sure, i'm french, but whatever i fuckin love perogies.
