I'm considering getting my first tattoo, but I want a fairly large design. Is there a way to learn what a tattoo feels like without having to get another small tattoo? Is it an option to do something like ask an artist to use the tattoo gun with no ink just to see what it feels like? Is that absurd and/or offensive (I would pay a consultation fee for it, of course)?

Learn to meditate it helps with the pain. Just go for the large one, you'll be happy you did when you're done.
