It’s going to be more or less painful on certain parts of your body. Any area where your bones are relatively close to your skin (spine, hands, feet, ribs, shoulder etc.) is gonna hurt like hell. It helps to bring something super comforting to distract yourself. For example, with my first one, I brought headphones and watched Scooby Doo (my ultimate comfort show) during the whole thing and it helped a ton

Definitely make sure to hydrate and eat. The artist should give you tips on taking care of during the healing stage, but make sure to ask. They don’t mind answering all your questions. Also, don’t do what I did and over-moisturize, so learn how much of what to use/do. Using not enough can be just as bad as using too much

I’m late but be prepared for the itch!!! Icing the area helps a bit but you kinda just have to suffer through it
