I wonder how much they charge cuz to have a anesthesiologist on hand i assume is not cheap

Anesthesia is not something you do unless you have to, the risk are way too high

[@bxsmash5126]

Ever since they used rappers to make tattoos seem cool to the sheeple our ppl have absolutely lost their minds. Even when someone is trying to reason with them the spirit that comes with the tattoo(s) will defend their presence with vitriol unapologetically.

What spirit? Humans have been getting tattoos since the beginning

Tattoos have always been cool lol people been getting tatted way before rap lol for centuries. It’s not really a trend and it makes sense why you’d wanna put art on ur body.

One of my close friends passed away in her early 30s from an anesthesia complication. Please be careful you guys . Tattoos don’t hurt that much, I think people don’t have the patience either though , which is really sad . But foreal , they don’t hurt that much , no need to risk your entire life - sincerely a person with 50+ tattoos and a painful nerve disease

[@jay-quinthunder7967]

I feel that tattoos should have a serious deep meaning! IF NOT IT'S STUPID TO GET ONE, JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK IT'S COOL

[@ogriss412]

I cant stand tattoos. Expecially on women.

[@notoriousLSGshow]

I think tats on lady look sexy AF, but not an entire sleeve - but I'm just an internet random casual so my opinion should be taken w/ a grain of salt 😂

[@DarrellGrant-nw5nu]

Exactly 💯 i agree like it's not attractive 🤦. Women look better the way they are why do they need tattoos.

It makes women look sltty but that’s a turn on. Lol

[@NobodyHasToAgreeAllTheTime]

This is such an important topic. A lot of these men in y’all lives, these men you look to for help and support, are walking around carrying a heavy weight on their hearts from things like this. I love how Erica was supportive too and didn’t react negatively like sadly a lot of people do when this is shared

[@kisht7469]

It so dumb to destroy your beautiful skin and body this way. A lot of people are going to regret their tattoos when they’re old and wrinkled.

[@butterscotch2086]

Getting put under anesthesia is more dangerous than surgery. They might not wake up. Crazy they doing that. Hope it doesn’t become a trend.

[@YouReallyDontKnow]

It is not more dangerous than surgery. You idiots should be required to site multiple sources in your idiotic claims. Stop spreading misinformation and lies. YOU are hurting people more than you think you’re helping.

[@AJohnson0325]

Anesthesia is only really dangerous for very sick people with major heart and lung problems, very old, very young, major surgeries that are usually done for very sick people, and emergency surgeries. If you are healthy and it’s elective the risk is minimal. I can’t say no risk because people could always have a rare allergic reaction or something but anesthesia is very safe.

[@kenyoung91269]

This won't be the thing one day...the money will be in removing them...a body with no tats will come back in style

[@percyastronautstatus.8780]

That's the problem...When did a NATURAL.body EVER go OUT OF STYLE ???..The fact that YOU have been brainwashed to believe your natural God given body has somehow GONE OUT OF STYLE says a lot...Example ...A woman with Natural.hajr and no makeup has NEVER been out of style...

[@bighulk6055]

I’m Samoan and in my culture pain is part of the process when we get a traditional tattoo or tattoos. The whole point of enduring the pain of getting a tattoo or tattoos is all bout the journey, meaning, the story it tells in your life. The pain is part of your story, it’ll heal in time. At the end of the day pain is only temporary, so if you can’t handle the pain don’t get a tattoo cause it won’t mean crap.

[@nothin9891]

The ink is in your bloodstream forever look up the long-term health effects. I think it’s very ugly to have ink in your bloodstream. Also, my dad aged with very dark tats covering his body. It does not look good when you’re older.

There most definitely is pain involved. As soon as they wake up their body is sent into shock immediately from pain receptor overload.
