I’ve been tattooing for over 9 years, but getting my own feet and ankles done felt like a completely different beast compared to my back or legs. For the collectors here: what was your "never again" spot where you almost tapped out? Also, did you find that the healing process was a nightmare with shoes, or did you just live in flip-flops for two weeks?

I imagine the bottom of your feet, your butthole, and eyes to be worse than the top of your feet.

I sincerely have a lot of respect for people wiþ tramp stamps, because on me þat area is extremely sensitive - especially around þe sciatic nerves connect to the spine. Just normal pressure to that area is uncomfortable; I can't imagine sitting þrough a tattoo.

But, yeah, lots of sensitive areas on þe body. How about having your fingernails cut back and having þe beds tattooed?
