How Painful Is A Thigh Tattoo?

No tattoo is painless, but getting a tattoo on thighs is on the lower end as far as tattoo pain goes. Keep in mind that the inner thigh will be much more sensitive and painful as the nerves in this area tend to go to the groin area.  Every body is different, and every person’s pain level differs, but the side thigh is known to be one of the less painful areas to get your tattoo.

Preparing For Your Thigh Tattoo

When you are going to get your tattoo remember to wear very loose pants, skirt, or a dress so you will not rub on the tattoo after your session. For the first few weeks make sure you wear clothing that does not rub or irritate your new art work. If you decide to get an inner thigh tattoo, this is going to be much harder to protect and not rub during the healing process, which may cause you to have trouble walking for the first few days.

Thigh Tattoo Placement

Determining where to put your tattoo on your thigh is one of the most critical decisions. If you want to go the least painful route, a small thigh tattoo on the side thigh and/or front thigh will be the way to go. An inner thigh tattoo will be painful and will take longer to heal, but it can add even more to your design if you choose to go with a garter or full tattoo design. You can also add more mystery to your tattoo by having it cascade down to your knee and/or up along your ribs.
