Well, the tattooist had to make the black surrounding lines with a thinner needle and the tattoo-gun was working on higher hz, around 80hz (80 needle strokes per second) and that was painful. Like someone constantly poking you with heated charcoal very fast.

When he was done with that I felt quite sick - felt like wanting to vomit. I think it was because I wasn't used of constantly getting hurt for such a long period of time, and I hadn't eaten anything before, too. However, I just drank a glass of water and the nausea went away after a minute or two.

Later on, when he started to colour the logo, it wasn't that painful. Mainly because he used a bigger needle and used a lower hz setting on the machine.

It took about 30 minutes to get the job done and it didn't hurt at all after that, even if I touched the tattooed skin.

Oh, now that I recall, my friend took a crappy picture with his iPhone in the middle of the colouring process.

I can upload that for preview once I'll get that from him.

Ooooohhh, if in the middle if getting a tattoo you lunge your hands up towards the needle would it pierce through at like so many strokes per second, :D
I sound like Danny from Hot Fuzz, luls.

What Pineapple said. Unless you remain unchanged for the remainder of your life eventually it will look horrible. It will be cool at first, but then people will start to waver and think your a D-bag probably. Maybe if it was smaller
