T-Pain got the real pain at 434 Tattoo, our Waikiki Tattoo Shop. Mike Tyson got the real pain from shop owner, Tattoo Adam. Thousands of others get the real pain each year from our talented team of Hawaii Tattoo Artists. Point being, tattoos are painful…
Getting your first tattoo in Hawaii, or anywhere, for that matter can be a little intense. No matter if it’s your first tattoo or an additional one, you don’t know what to expect or how your body is going to respond to the experience. Here are a couple tips we’ve learned over the years so that the process flows:
Doubledown: “Don’t drink caffeine. In World War II, caffeine was given to prisoners so that the pain from torture would be felt more.”
Andy Burley: “Try to do something relaxing beforehand. You’re going to want to feel relaxed, you know, get your 6-8 hours of sleep. You should also eat a big meal and take about 45 minutes before getting your tattoo. And relax.”
And if you’re wondering what to do after, we can go to Tattoo Adam for the (comic relief) wisdom on tattoo aftercare: “Go to a dirty massage parlor with lots of germs, they’ll wash it down for you and put on the ointment…”
All jokes aside, there are a lot of different tips and techniques out there to make your tattoo experience, memorable, safe, and to ease the real pain! So come on down, our award-winning Honolulu Tattoo Studio, offers free consultations and touch-ups for life, and we always offer the best in Hawaii tattoo discounts and deals around!
