Can't decide if I should get a tattoo on the back of my neck or on my right shoulder?

Either place but I'm just curious where is it with less likely hurt. Note that it's my first tattoo and I know tattoo comes with pain but I'm just looking for a place for it with less likely hurt and it would look good. There will be no numbing cream unfortunately.

Here's the tattoo:

    Congrats on getting your 1st tatt.

    I would pick Shoulder for two reasons well 3.

    1 dealing with pain control in yourself while getting it.

    2 you will be able to care for it and see it better. I do not see the point in getting tatts you cannot see yourself.

    3 you will be able to cover it up if it ever becomes an issue.

    Good luck and just remember to breathe through the pain.

    Well if you want it to be more visible then go for your right shoulder but if u dont want it to be seen then go for ur back of ur neck , but i dont see the point if getting a tattoo if you dont show it off so i suggest right shoulder

    I wouldn't worry about the pain! since its your first time, you should be excited about the design, not the pain! =) and if it was me i would choose neck, because that picture looked great! =) great choice by the way!

    Sexy Kenyan, I agree. You look fine without a tattoo.

    I would say shoulder. I agree that it would be easier for you to see and would be interesting to show off on an off-the-shoulder top or something.

    Go for the shoulder. You will have less pain and can see your new tatt.
