Thanks, guys! I'm excited. It's not going to be more than probably 1.5" tall. I'm still afraid it's going to be really painful. :/

Depends on where you get it. But honestly, that won't take long at all so I doubt it'll hurt that bad.
I did over 2 hours on the top of my foot and only one or two spots hurt. I don't have the highest pain tolerance but I didn't tear up or anything. And obviously it didn't discourage me from wanting another one!
 
-sigh- I figured. I want it right above my ankle bone on my left leg. Hopefully it won't be too bad.

It's worth it, though. To me anyway. But it does depend on where you get it. But I've heard it's least painful on your back. But Ankle. I imagine it will be a bit painful if it's on the bone part.
 
Cool tatt, very cute ;)

For anyone worried that their first tatt will hurt, don't worry you might be one of the few that actually finds it enjoyable. Me? I could lie there all day on the chair. Last tatt I had, it was the tattoo artist that had to take a break because her hand was cramping after two hours. That was on my back, most of my back actually. I was happily in my 'zen' place ha ha.

Haha mine only took an Hour, I took no breaks. But it hurt but I find it better to get it over with than to take a break. The way he had me positioned, my arm fell dead asleep. That was actually the worst part was my arm falling asleep.
 
Thanks Sunny!

I didn't take breaks either...but I could only afford $200 at a time, so my tattoo was two one hour sessions haha. But you're right! I had to keep my foot pointed down and the positioning WAS the worst part! Not to mention when he was going over the crease at the top of my ankle my foot kept twitching haha.
 
I've had some really easy tats and some really not so easy ones. I would say that the one on my very very lower abdomen hurt the worst. Second only to my leg. My leg is color and had to be gone over quite a bit. I sat through all of mine. I have a shoulder blade to shoulder blade cross that took 5 hours, a stamp that took 4 and my leg took 6. My bad one only took about 40 minutes but it stung the whole time.
 
AWESOME! That is absoloutely gorgeous! I want one :D Her leg though :( But it still looks good regardless!
