When I was getting my tatt done on my foot, i had my arms wrapped around my stomach with my elbows tucked underneath the arms of the chair, and when he started outlining or coloring over bones or my hamstring, i just clenched my teeth, took slow deep breaths, tightened my abs and pushes against the arms of the chair. otherwise I didn't make a peep. And Ginevive, I agree that foot/ankle tattoo's HURT, lol. The longer I sat in the chair, the more I twitched because I started to go past my pain limit. But all in all it was well worth it!
