People with active skin infections, bleeding disorders, or those who are pregnant should avoid getting tattoos. If you have conditions like psoriasis, diabetes, or a compromised immune system, consult your doctor before booking. We also recommend avoiding tattoos when you’re sunburned or on blood thinners.

Ribcage, spine, elbows, and knees are among the most painful areas to get tattooed. Pain levels vary by individual, but areas with thin skin and little fat tend to hurt more. Our artists at Hardwork Tattoos will walk you through pain expectations based on placement.

The worst spots are generally those over bone or nerve-dense areas like the ribs, spine, or ankles. Pain perception differs, but these areas tend to cause more discomfort. Let us know your pain tolerance, and we can guide you to a more comfortable placement.

Tattoo flu refers to mild, temporary symptoms like fatigue, chills, or body aches after getting a tattoo. This immune response is normal, especially after large sessions. Stay hydrated, rest, and follow aftercare. If symptoms worsen, seek medical advice.

Black ink typically hurts the least, while white, yellow, and light colours may be more painful. Lighter colours often require more passes over the same area. Our artists at Hardwork Tattoos work gently and efficiently to minimise discomfort regardless of colour.
