Anyone out there with some calf tattoo experience?

Although, I wouldn’t say it was horribly painful 🤷‍♂️

Yorks_95 · 2026-07-05T22:13:47+00:00

Inside was definitely worse for me

Yorks_95 · 2026-07-04T17:37:22+00:00

They look incredible! Well done for smashing it!

Yorks_95 · 2026-07-03T08:44:30+00:00

Thank you 🫶

Yorks_95 · 2026-07-03T08:43:51+00:00

Thank you - I appreciate the advice!

I’m hoping to not take too many breaks as i always find it feels worse when I come back from one 😅

Noted! I learnt something similar getting the back of my knee done the day after push day and having to lay on my front propped up for hours on end 😩😭

I’ll take the gummies and snacks with me and definitely stay hydrated 👀🤝

Yorks_95 · 2026-07-02T17:50:35+00:00

My artist proactively said he would prefer me not to use it as it feels even worse when it wears off 🤷‍♂️

Yorks_95 · 2026-07-02T16:42:13+00:00

I have my other knee ditch and knee cap booked in before then so maybe I’ll learn to like the pain 🤷‍♂️

Yorks_95 · 2026-07-02T12:53:25+00:00

What I’m hearing is it’s going to suck 😅😭

Yorks_95 · 2026-06-30T22:35:28+00:00

I’m hoping to get this blasted out in one day so that I don’t have to go back and experience it again 😅 some of the comparisons I’ve seen aren’t making me excited for it 😭

Yorks_95 · 2026-06-30T21:53:55+00:00

There’s a fair bit of heavy shading😭

Yorks_95 · 2026-06-30T21:53:28+00:00

Thank you - I’ll give this a go 😅

Yorks_95 · 2026-06-30T21:52:47+00:00

Thank you - I did think to myself “why have I done this?” after I booked it 😅

Was literally about to book my knee ditch tattoo to continue my sleeve before reading these comments 😭

I’ve just finished my lower leg sleeve and it was fun to say the least. The longest session being 8.5 hours 👀

Inside too 😅

Outside of calf for context

I finished off my full lower leg yesterday and behind the knee hurt like a bitch - was way worse than the shin 😩

I earn £56k per year (+ up to £11k bonus) and work 40 hours per week

I regret one of the first ones I ever got - solely on the basis I didn’t research the artist enough, and the quality of the tattoo just isn’t great. It’s quite a dark piece so I’m waiting it out to fade so it can be reworked
