How painful is a chest tattoo?

Chest: Noticeable on our 5-step pain scale — the outer chest is tolerable, the sternum is sharper. Pain is personal, and long sessions, stress and bleeding make it feel worse. Pain map →

How long does it take to heal, and will people see it?

The surface usually looks healed in 2–4 weeks; the skin keeps settling for a few months. On the chest healing is moderate, and it is easy to cover. When can I swim, work out, tan? →

How will a tattoo like this age?

Thin lines and soft colour are the first things to soften with years of sun and skin renewal — more so when the piece is small or sits on a hand, finger or ankle. Going a little bigger, bolder outlines and daily sunscreen keep it readable longer; a touch-up after some years is normal. How tattoos age →

Can I get this exact design?
