What can you take when you are getting a tattoo so it doesn't hurt?

You really shouldn't "take" anything, and I would ESPECIALLY advise against getting a tattoo after a night of heavy drinking as it may cause you to bleed more and ruin your artwork. It all depends on your body's reaction to not only the ink used, but the chemicals that you place in your body to begin with. Certain over the counter pain relievers, such as Acetaminophen, are natural blood thinners and could potentially cause problems with bleeding in certain people. Not only that, this particular drug is also found in some forms of popular painkillers in varying degrees such as Hydrocodone, Oxycodone, etc. Always read labels, do research ,and discuss these things with your tattoo artist before you waste their time coming into their shop drunk or high on something. If you put these chemicals into your body, and then wonder why the ink is not staying in because you had a reaction to the painkillers and booze you mixed last night because you were scared to sit in the chair and get stung by a needle for a couple hours, you may not need to get any body art to begin with. Unless you are the rare person who wouldn't call and blame the artist..... Just some things to think about!

Does a tattoo on the forearm hurt?
It does not hurt. It will sting, burn, and possibly make you cringe in slight pain, but it doesnt hurt. I just got my first tattoo down on my right forearm, just 3 days ago, and it didnt hurt. The first part, it stung. Then he colored it in, and it burned. Once he got to the middle of my forearm, it burned and make me cringe. But it was not like a "OMFG THAT HURTS" pain. At all. Though it really depends on your ability to take pain, I encourage you to get it. Dont ever let the pain of getting a tattoo stop you from getting that tattoo if its important to you.

Take before getting a tattoo?
I assume your meaning "what medications can i take before getting a tattoo", and the answer would not be asprine. Asprine are blood thinners and can cause serious problems, as can drinking. Do not take asprine or drink with in 48 hours before getting a tattoo.
Were don't you get a tattoo?
There are no place you don't get tattoo. You get the tattoo where you can take the pain like the bicept is a less painful place to get a tattoo because of the amount of mussel there compaired to getting a tattoo on your foot where the is not much mussel or fat to help it is right on the bone. Anywhere that it is on the bone will hurt way more then any mussel or fat area. Other places that you don't want to get them if you can't take pain is like under the arm, hand, ribs, feet, low back, neck and your head are the places that hurt more. Place that they are not going to be as painful is upper back, legs, bicept and four arm. That's all I can tell you hope it helped.

Is it ok to take hydrocodone before getting a tattoo?
My personal opinion, is to take this to dull your pain senses. Don't worry! Tattooing does not hurt as bad as it is said too. The obvious risk I could see with this, is the possiblity of it imparing your senses. You may not thinking clearly, or make a unremarkable mistake.
