First tattoo advice
My birthday is coming up and I was thinking about getting my first tattoo! I really like the idea of a butterfly tattoo (they've been very symbolic for me). I'm indecisive about placement, I really like the inner upper arm and the ribcage but do those spots hurt more/less? I would kinda like to place it somewhere less visible but I still want it to look good. Please share your opinions on the placement/what would hurt less and maybe some advice! I would really appreciate it :)
It's assumed it hurts more in the ribs, BUT it really depends on the person and their pain tolerance. Both places are sensitive, tho. Better focus on the size: something small and more linear will be softer than something big and painted (if you want something like that, you could do multiples sessions).

Both of those places are going to hurt. Rib cage - because there's not a lot of fat and it's directly on your bones. Just pinch your inner arm and you'll see why that will hurt. Honestly though, if that's what you want go for it anyway! It is 100% worth the pain. I just got my third one on the side of my wrist, hurt like hell, zero regrets.
