Tattoos are reasonably painful to get, but you may stop the tattooist at
any time during the procedure, until you feel ready to go on again.
Some people feel pain more acutely than others. Most people feel
inclined to get another tattoo soon - which is an indication of the bear
ability of the pain. Large tattoos are done over a period of time, to
give the wearer time to rest after each session. And yes, when the
tattooist perforates the skin, there will be moderate bleeding. It is a
good idea to be well rested before your first tattoo!
