These tattoo pain can be kept under control by an experienced tattoo artist. Although, calf tattoo hurt, yet they are more creative as its done on a large space of the body.

Although a few nerve endings might be triggered while getting a calf tattoo and the healing process is also quite slow compared to other tattoos. It takes more than 2-3 weeks to heal completely.

One must avoid drinking alcohol during the healing process.
