Lidocaine

[PointSal]

Hi,

will using lidocaine 4% effect the outcome of a watercolor, or any tattoo?

i want to be comfortable but not at the cost of having it be screwed up

thanks!

Hey there...why do you think that you need the lidocaine? Where are you getting tattooed and how long will you be sitting?

[PointSal]

Spine 2 hours. I may not need it, someone suggested it to me

[Gingerninja]

I had my spine done a few years ago. Four hour session. Very manageable. The only place that sucked was at the very top. Total average suck factor on a 1-5 scale was about a 2.75 with the top hitting a 3.5. :)

Oh ok. Thanks! I'll try without it. I'm not going to the very top anyway.

"suck factor"lol

Not trying to be a snob, but it makes me sad that tradition is lost. What's next, Sedation Tatooery? Here, we'll sedate you and you won't feel a thing.

My shin bone would have been very interested in sedation tattooery this past weekend. Went with the more traditional post tattoo beer and food sedation therapy instead.
