Welcome to the forum ๐Ÿ™‚

I too have a MASSIVE needle phobia, so committing to a large tattoo booked over 6 days probably wasn’t the wisest thing ๐Ÿ˜€

First session was tough, I actually sweated most of the stencil off and went white as a sheet but a few minutes in and all was fine.
I’ve since had 6 more days on it with no problems at all and my needle phobia is way, way better than it was before

Welcome. Luckily getting a tattoo is not like you think of “needles” either from a Doctor, or jabbing yourself with pin. As far as seeing needles whilst being tattooed again it’s not what you think. As for the feeling it depends where on your body and you as an individual. If you are after something big, your tattooist will start in one of the better spots. If I can handle it anyone can as I’m one of the biggest wimps.

welcome, I am needle phobic too, but tattoo doesnt bother me, the needle doesnt stay in any length of time and it is very short so it doesnt set my phobia off
