It doesn't hurt at all, yes you get the slight stinging sensation with any tattoo, but I can honestly say the one on my foot was more painful.
It's just loud where the gun is close to your ear.
It is safe to get a tattoo behind your ear. Choose a licensed, experienced tattoo artist. It won't hurt too much. In fact, there are not that many nerve endings back there. On the other hand, any neck tattoo is difficult to hide.
I read this before I got mine last night, so I thought I'd share my experience. I got mine along the curve of the back of my ear. I can't say at any point that it hurt, it was just slightly uncomfortable.
It's safe, didn't hurt more than any other tattoo. It will prevent you from entering the military though as I now know. But my parents didn't even see it for a year so it's easy to hide lol.
I can tell you from experience that it didn't hurt very much at all. There are few nerves there so it didnt cause a lot of pain. The noise is annoying at first, but not really bothersome. So no. It definitely did not hurt a lot.
Getting a tattoo behind your ear is possible, but however, painful. Behind your ear is one of the most sensitive areas in your body, so undoubtedly, it'd hurt a lot.
The tattoo behind the ear hurts you a lot because the skin behind the ear will be very thin and when the needle pierced there lot of pain will come. The vibration make your ear drum uncomfortable.
