Inside: Yummiest pasta tattoo ideas that will make your stomach rumble.
Calling all carb lovers! I have a treat for you today, and it comes in the form of pasta tattoos! You read that right, pasta tattoos are a thing, and they are breathtaking.
I would have never thought they existed until I saw someone who rocked one. My world shifted, and I knew right then that I needed one.
So I went home, and I started researching all of the different styles and kinds that I could get. I found so many beautiful ideas that I had to do something with them, so I thought I would share them with you.
I now have a good handful to choose from, so I know this list is legit. Below you will find over 100 of the coolest pasta tattoo ideas for you to look through! But first, let’s get into the important stuff.
How Much Will A Pasta Tattoo Cost?
Since cash is king, I thought I would handle this question first. Although, my answer is more like advice because I can not give you a specific number. This is because tattoo prices are based on things like which tattoo you choose, how big and detailed it is, and what your artist’s rates are.
Most tattoo artists will charge by the hour, so you can bet that bigger tattoos are going to cost more, and smaller ones will be nicer for your pocket.
But the best way to get your price is to plan your tattoo with a budget. You probably have a number in mind that you are not willing to go over, so let your tattoo artist know. They can help you design a tattoo that is perfect AND in your price range.
Will It Hurt?
I love this question because I know for a fact if you are asking it you have never gotten a tattoo before. This means your first tattoo will be a pasta tattoo, and that is so dang cool! I love it.
The bad news, though, is that your tattoo is going to hurt. Not because pasta tattoos hurt more than other ones or anything, but because pain is the nature of tattoos. The process of getting inked requires a needle gun to stab you about a thousand times a second quicker. I am not telling you this to scare you off because it really isn’t that bad. But it’s the truth.
The good news is you have a few things you can do to minimize your pain. Things like choosing a less hurtful spot(somewhere that isn’t boney), and using numbing cream(You just put this stuff on at your appointment, and it numbs you right up).
