Thoughts on a thigh tattoo?

I'm considering a decent sized tattoo on my outer thigh (just above the knee) and about 8 inches by 5 inches, but am curious if anyone who has a tattoo in that area has any feedback? Did that area hurt more than other areas?  Was the healing progress the same as, say, a smaller design on the arm?

    Gov't is killing you with highfrequencyelectricity. TheotokosVirginMary gave prayers to "Schema-nun Antonia" on how to save aborted babies from hell. If you pray these prayers diligently, aborted babies are released from hell. On each painted nail there are forty demons. Smoking is censer to the devil.Using foul language calls upon Pagan deities (aka demons); Holy Spirit departs on seven meters. People who use drugs see demons who cleverly disguise themselves as ghosts and aliens.America will be last country to switch to Euro (antichrist's world currency). Contraceptives = abortion;using contraceptives for one year = five aborted kids.Miscarriages happen because of high heels; cesarean because of pants (second generation cesarean will be infertile).Unbaptized aborted/miscarried/unborn babies burn in hell until Final Judgement; if pregnant, keep the kid and deliver at home because kids are chippedusing IVs and vaccines in hospitals. Dentists and doctors chip patients secretly. Ultrasound leads to mark of the beast; don't do ultrasound, please. Abortion leads to breast cancer; a demon is released from hell for each aborted kid. Dogs can become possessed; don't keep dogs inside your home [Pelageya of Ryazan]. Walmart has technology to administer mark of the beast to those who have cat bacteria in their stomachs/brains; stay away from cats [Athanasius 3rd of Constantinople]. Next false flag is the Statue of Liberty. Above earth there is ice (dome); when rockets go up they bring ice down from upper sky to lower sky; ice stuck in lower sky will fall on us during Apocalypse. Earth is flat; earth stands on three stalactite pillars (The Most Holy Trinity); pillars stand on water at zero Kelvin; underneath this ice there is a bubble; and then the abyss. Zodiac is planetary prison of demons; don't believe in horoscopes or you'll exhibit the traits of the trapped demons. Most thoughts and dreamsare from demons; demons never do good. Sleep fully clothed; pray the Jesus prayer. Pray to your guardian angel to have normal sleep. Vyacheslav Krasheninnikov was the last prophet before Apostle John (who wrote the Book of Revelation), Enoch, Elijah, resurrected Seraphim of Sarov, and resurrected Sergius of Radonezh will preach against the antichrist. Humans were created about 7530 years ago. Birds participate in time creation. It's a sin to kill birds. Dinosaurs live under our level; they will get out through sinkholes and lakes; to kill them, go for their nerves. Save the birds; but kill the dinosaurs. First dinosaur will come out of Volga River in Russia. Scientists don't see dinosaurs under our level because of radiation. Sinkholes happen because people dig for resources underground and because earth is heating up. Demons grow human skin (from a sample taken during abduction) and put it on so as to look like us. Demons will invite people to be healed inside their UFOs; those who go will be like zombies after. Gov't provides demons with diamonds and allows demons to abduct people. If you're being abducted, slowly pray the Jesus prayer. Don't panic. Demons use diamonds and souls to power their UFO craft. The bigger the diamond, the more it lasts. Demons have 4 UFO bases: 1)moon 2)inside fake mountain Kailash (Tibet) 3)in lake Baikal in Russia 4)in Atlantis which is underneath double ocean floor of Mariana Trench (Pacific Ocean). There are no aliens. Nobody lives on other planets. Airplanes that go down are hit by demons because they need the airspace to fight Jesus. Antichrist is pale with red eyes. He's possessed by Satan since he's 12 years old [Lavrentiy Chernigovskiy]. He flies super fast; deceived people will say: "Christ is here; Christ is there" when he's flying from one city to the next very fast. He wears gloves to hide long nails. He'ssurrounded by demons who appear as angels of light. Antichrist will trick people that he can do mountain moving and resurrection using holograms/hypnosis; fire from the sky is real because of pollution gases in the atmosphere. Antichrist will have food only for 6 months; then he will feed his 666ed people flourfrom mashed up turtles (Tavrion Batozskiy), but this won't be enough because 666ed people are 10 times as angry and 7 times as hungry as normal people even though 666ed people became shorter (3-4 feet tall = 80 - 120 cm)because nanochips do function of organs (organs diminish) [Nilus Myrrhgusher]. If you have a lot of nanochips in your forearm, then you will not be able to make proper Orthodox sign ofthe cross (last mercy for you will be to cut yourforearm off). Nanochips are sprayed by the gov't usingchemtrails; they're also in gov't food andmedicine; so, eat food from your own garden. In case garden is destroyed by ice from the sky, have chickens for eggs and goats for milk (Paisios). Lipstick contains cells of abortedfetuses, dog fat, and placenta; human fleshis in McDonalds, Pepsi, toothpaste, antiaging,anticancer, vaccines, perfume, etc.; that's why you should not be using anything that modern society has to offer. You're better off hiding within a 10-15 people group in order to escape Apocalypse. During Apocalypse,Christians will eat dirt from under pussywillowtree as it's filled with tears of Theotokos VirginMary; this water will flee if a 666ed person tries to get it. Barcode is Druid black magic curse; QRcode is Mayan curse; when food is scanned, it becomes dead because laser is a substance from demons. Don't go into a UFO to be healed by demons. Unforgivablegreen666 is given by isotope rays on wrist or forehead when people stretch hands to receive small plastic grey card with no name on it (WorldPassport). It doesn't just have to be during this procedure (could be anything you sign up for or anywhere where there is a secret scanner); biometrics (fingerprints, eyescan) or getting picture for passport are very dangerous because they could mark you secretly. GabrielUrgebadze said thattheydoitonindexfingerwhenthey scan your finger. Basically, trytoavoidnewdocuments at all cost. Policewill microchip and isotope ray people on highways. Chipped people will be influenced by computers to take grey plastic card; but when they do, greenmark by isotope rays is given on forehead/wrist. Food stores will isotoperaypeopletoo. Antichrist will also release prisoners/insaneasylumpeople tomarkpeople. Reject 666 at all cost because it leads to permanent hell. If you're about to be marked, pray the Jesus prayer. Hide with OrthodoxChristians to escape 666; leave all electronics behind so that antichrist's minions can'ttrack you; burn documents because they're fromSatan. TheMostHolyTrinity gives you a name during baptism; devil gives an antiname during antibaptism (ex. SocialSecurityNumber). People who die with these Satanicdocuments go to concentrationcamp in hell to await FinalJudgement; once the BEASTComputer is burned down, souls will be released for FinalJudgement. That's why you should give back documents of your deceasedrelatives back to the gov't so that the gov't cancels these digital antichristiannames given during antibaptism by the beastsystem; or just burn thesedocumentsbecause gov't could get upset and could send demons to mark you because of this outright act of defiance. Prophecy from halfamillennium ago describes FinalJudgement like this: Jesus was very upset with people who had littleboards (plasticcards) in their hands because they wanted discount from the antichrist. Givetocharity in the name of ArchangelMichael; he rescues people from temporaryhell twice a year [at midnight September18-19 and similarly on November20-21; pray at these times on your knees remembering the deceased by names (adding "and relatives by flesh up to Adam") so that they arerescued if they're in hell] (or brings them up alevel, that is, to a level with lesspunishment;eventually, people arefreed). Feed thepigeons;when pigeons bowdown, people are savedfrom temporaryhell. It's a big sin to rememberthe deadwithwreaths (because demons put these wreaths on their necks if they're inhellwith theirwrists tied up behind their back while hanging by their wrists), meat,alcohol,sweets,andworldlymusic. Demons print icons of saints/crosses/8sidedstarofTheotokosVirginMary in newspapers/products so that you throw these newspapers/products in the trashblasphemingthesesaints. Crosses on solesofshoes and backofpants are blasphemy. Demons makecarpets with crosses and put them on sidewalks so that people walk on crosses. Playingcards mockhow Jesus sufferedonthecross: clubs(cross on which Jesus wascrucified), diamonds (fournails Jesus was crucified with), hearts (sponge with vinegar that Jesuswas given to drink),spades (spear with whichJesus waspierced).Cremationisdevilworship; only blasphemers such as Lenin should be burned; if Lenin is buried, earth will be polluted, and China will attack Russia because of this. AfterChinaattacksRussia, RuskiOrthodoxTsar (shown by resurrected SeraphimofSarov) willcome topowerinRussia;this Tsar will slay traitors inside Church and gov't; asaresult, Russia will be the only country not under the antichrist.Ecumenism=263heresies;each heresy leads to hell. In 2006 in Moscow (that's why Moscow will sink),representatives from most religions signed a document where it says that all religions worship the same SupremeBeing [aka thedevil]. Priests who participate in ecumenism will have Pagans walking on theirheads in hell. ArkhimandriteAntoninKapustin left a prophecy that Church of All Russian Saints in Gorny Monastery, EinKarem, Israel will be blessed by forerunner of antichrist; pseudoPatriarchKirillofRussia and MarkofBerlin blessed thischurchin2007.

    Luckily for you Jolene, this is probably the least painful area (save the butt) on the body to get inked on. I have a 4 x 6 piece done exactly where you're describing and I nearly fell asleep through the session. Now, I don't know you, but if you're an anemic/skinny little thing with almost no body fat, it might hurt alot worse. 

      Generally speaking though, thigh tattoos are one of the best places to get inked up, and I'll tell you why

    1.) Meaning. I can't tell you how many people who come to me for advice about tattoos don't have an answer to the following question. My question being: "If no one but you could see the ink you're about to get, would you still get it?  Most people are just in it to get attention for themselves and could care less what their piece looks like. With a thigh tattoo, unless you wear booty shorts or speedos year round, you really are committing to getting something that (most of the time) only you are going to appreciate. So the meaning almost has to be there cause you'll be dealing with it more than anyone

    2.) Longevity: Since your thighs are covered by clothing most of the time, it's protected from the elements, especially UV rays from the sun. Compare it to say, a shoulder tattoo. Those pieces are usually blurred and mottled looking in a decade or so and need to get redone. Thighs retain their color and shape moderately well, unless you go through a massive body transition weight wise....then they will stretch.

    3.) Location: The thigh is one of the easiest spots for an artist to work on. You can literally just sit back in the chair, roll up your pant leg (or not depending on what you're wearing) and let them do the rest. They can easily roll around in their chair to get every angle they need, and you're not bent in some awkward pose for hours on end while they struggle to reach the right area.

    4.) The "regret" factor. If you get something (not saying you will) that, in a few years you start looking at and going "well darn this looks awful and the meaning has been lost and whatnot..." you're in luck because you can just start wearing jeans and no one will know the difference. It doesn't affect your job eligibility or how people view you, and you can hide it from the parents who may not approve. Also, getting them covered up or lasered off can be well hidden and done.

    5.) Shave or no Shave: It's pretty common knowledge by now that you should shave the areas of your body that have tattoos. It shows them off better and allows them to be cleaned easier. Legs can be quickly shaved and don't take any specialty razors to get there.

    6.) Healing Process/"Breathability": Large pieces heal longer than small ones, duh. But with a thigh, not only can you keep it aerated easier, you can easily throw some lotion on it whenever you please. 

    Good luck!

    My right leg is completely tattooed from above the hip down through the ankle. The first tattoo covered just the side of my calf, but it grew over time as I added to it. I think I had four artists work on it over the course of a few years. The most discomfort was on the front of my shin, where there is no cushion. Beyond that, it was no big deal. I didn't have any issues with the healing process. I remember using a thin layer of Vaseline and mild soap for aftercare. Pretty simple. Follow their instructions and you should be fine.

    If you really want to do it.  I have one on my outer thigh and Iove it .  It took 4½ hrs to complete the first 2 hrs were easy but the last hr was so painful but worth it for me . You just gotta be careful how you sit and sleep but the same goes for any other tattoo with taking care of it.

    Hi! Agreed with stryder - these answers are terrible.  Nothing wrong with tattoos.  I just got one that’s about ten inches, on my outer thigh  above the knee.  It was a little painful, particularly right around the knee area, not worse than the one on my wrist but much longer to sit and deal with.  Mine had SecondSkin on it so aftercare was super simple as opposed to just plastic wrap which would require more care.  After about a day all I noticed was some soreness to the touch and sensitivity to heat.  Hope that helps :)

    I have not had any here but my wife and friend have their thigh tattooed so here goes.

    It will heal around the same time as your others but the pain is a little higher than you'd expect apparently. Even tho it's fleshy, there's alot of nerves. It scabs abit more and there is a lot of tightness when trying to move for a couple weeks and don't forget when you go to stand up. Can't tell how many times my misses forgot and then put her hands on it full force to stand up. 

    Sorry but the other answers are dreadful so thought I would throw something In.

    I drive a 2020 Corvette. Paid cash. I like it, a lot. I would never consider putting a bumper sticker on it - and bumper stickers can be relatively easy to remove. I also would not consider having someone permanently etch some sort of artwork onto one of the quarter-panels or bumpers. The reason I would not put extraneous stuff  on this car is because I respect the beauty and engineering that went into the build and design.

    There is no reason for you to think any differently about your body... unless your self-esteem is truly so bad that you need to artificially cover that which is naturally beautiful and bury it under something that you may not even want in a couple of years...

    Don't do it. Later on you WILL regret it. Nothing looks worse than a lot of painted trash.
