One, it is a myth that a tattoo isn't going to hurt, but there are places that are more painful that others. Skin that is close to the bones, like on the wrist or elbow is going to be more painful. The softer areas, like under the arms, on the chest and pubic area is going to hurt. There are degrees of pain and some people have a better tolerance than others. If you are thinking about going out and getting drunk before you have one done, you shouldn't. Drinking actually thins the blood, making you bleed more.
While there are many sites that offer arm tattoos, you really have to be careful when using the internet to find tattoos, Some sites do offer free ones, but you have to sign up for their tattoo 'club.' Other sites say they are free, but in actuality charge a fee for their services. If you look hard enough, you can find some good free sites; if you find a site that charges, make sure you're getting your money's worth. Some sites have package deals. One example is there is a site that shows you tattoos of different stars, like Lady Gaga, or Amy Winehouse and others and you can order all of the tattoo designs they have at one time. This can not only save you money, but time trying to find individual tattoos.
So whether you are picking classic or contemporary arm tattoos or want to customize your own, you won't have any trouble finding them. Make sure that you are getting a tattoo put on for you and not for anyone else. It is a good idea not to put the name of a boy or girl friend on your body, because while these people may come and go, a tattoo is going to be permanent.
