1. Elbows.

Experts do not recommend getting tattoos on the elbows because it is difficult to get the ink to stay in this area for a long time. In addition, the skin is very thick and needs a longer tattooing process.

2. Armpits.

The armpit is one of the most painful places to get a tattoo. The pain can be very intense and the process is likely to be unbearable for you.

3. Under the knees.

The area behind the knees is very sensitive and has many nerve endings.

4. Wrists and fingers.

Yes, these are popular places to get a tattoo, but experts say that, firstly, it is not recommended to get tattoos on the wrists and fingers, because this is an open area, and exposure to the sun will greatly affect your tattoo. In addition, the tattoos on the sides of the fingers often wear off.

5. Chest.

It definitely looks amazing, but the pain is very high. Breasts are second only to armpits. In addition, the healing process may take longer for women if they have to constantly wear a bra.

6. Face.

In addition to sensitive skin and many nerve endings, tattoo artists say that a tattoo on a face will only last for 2-3 years. Also, if you decide to apply it to this part of your body, remember to use sunscreen every day.

7. Ankles and shins.

The ankles and shins are in contact with the shoe and socks. And for this reason, a tattoo can lose its vibrant colors very quickly. Also, in terms of pain, it's about the same level as a chest tattoo.
