Getting a tattoo can be described as an unpleasant feeling, but not very painful. Of course, the part of the body on which the tattoo is placed also affects the pain. In general, the thinner the skin and the closer to the bone, the more sensitive the tattoo will be.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-553234307\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-553234307-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-na-hoe-lang-is-een-tattoo-volledig-genezen?\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-553234307-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>After how long is a tattoo fully healed?<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-553234307-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-553234307-label\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<p>Fully healing a tattoo takes between 2 and 3 months on average.
