How painful is it?

Quite surprising, but it is a fact that a tattoo inked on the tongue is not different from a tattoo on any other part of the body. It is not as painful as we consider it to be. Actually, the image of the tattoo is not inked upon the tongue but actually under the tongue. This is done so that the tattoo does not get worn away with the passage of time. In the actual process, the ink is injected directly into the epidermis with the use of a rapidly moving needle. With the lodging of the ink into the epidermis, the color of the ink is captured by the skin. This makes the artist keep on cleaning the tattoo while carrying on his work, so that the tattoo area is wiped off with antiseptic and sterilized.
