Almost every tattoo shop has a policy to refuse to tattoo anyone under the influence.
It's never okay to take any substance prior to getting tattooed. In most cases, it intensifies the pain and reaction. The natural body is well-built to handle the amount of discomfort you'll feel from your tattoos application. Put some music on, find an interesting subject to chat about with your artist and you'll be finished in no time at all.

Of course check with your doctor and tattoo artist but the general rules for not getting one whilst pregnant is: The unborn child feels stress the same as you do so getting one whilst pregnant is likely to upset the baby because you are in pain. Remember babies in the womb go through the same things you do, like food, alcohol, stress and some say pain. Can't think of a reason why it should not be okay to get a tattoo at a reputable studio shortly after you feel okay but like I said check with the pros.
Yes but a&d ointment works better in early healing.
No. you want to make sure your scabs on your new tattoo are left alone. I had a new tattoo when I went to a wedding so many people hugged me that the scab was knocked off on one section of my tattoo and when that happens you loose the part of the tattoo that had the scab come off. I also suggest you follow the advice of the person doing your tattoo.
two schools of thought......1. When you are pregnant your immune system is running wild....2. After your 5th month your baby feels what you feel.......Bad time..Many tattooists will not tattoo you if your pregnant at all.
Answeryoud have to consult the tattoo artist. if you go in the store with a picture of the size youd like, and tell them the location, they can give you an instant estimate. * I'd like to add that I happen to have a small star on my hip. It's black and red, and took about 30-45 minutes. It hurts, but if you tolerate pain well enough, you should be okay.
