Neck Tattoos Painful??

A question often asked when deciding on getting a neck tattoo is will it be more painful than getting a tat on other parts of the body?

Because the skin on the back of the neck is thinner, the needle naturally comes closer to the bone which does make getting a neck tattoo a little more painful. Of course, it all depends on the individual’s physical and psychological makeup.

Another thing to consider when getting a neck tattoo is the healing time. A tattoo usually heals in about three weeks but a neck tattoo might take a little bit longer. This is due to the motion created by the movement of the head which causes the neck tattoo to scab quickly. As a result, you might need to re-ink a neck tattoo to fix some of the patchiness. Luckily, these re-ink sessions are not as painful as the initial session.

The last consideration to be made when making the decision on whether or not to get a neck tattoo is the fact that it can’t easily be concealed like other types of tattoos. Unless you go for the nape or base of the neck.
