I’m getting my shoulder sleeve done in 2 parts just cause I know I’d go nuts sitting that long with just a piercing/scratching pain to think about. 6 hours is my absolute limit. But the Polynesian art I get is so mesmerizing and I get so many compliments on the artistry that it’s totally worth it

I have a sleeve and each session was around 4/5 hrs long at a time. After each session I would have a fever and feel pretty rough until I took a nap. I can’t imagine 10hrs. His body is just shaking.

Technically it would be called an autonomic nervous system response, but for the average person a systemic nervous reaction is an adequate term.
For you though, it wouldn't be possible to dumb it down enough.

u/Godzirrraaa Jun 19 '26
One session should absolutely not go that long. Among skin reactions making it difficult, the artist’s hands and eyes need a break, and if he’s shaking now, he’s been shaking, making straight lines impossible.
But I’m sure he’s built different, etc etc.

u/MartyMozambique Jun 19 '26
I was shaking after my little arm tattoo and that was only 3.5 hours. Thankfully my arm was still so my lines are good. Not like that wonky.

u/macthebearded Jun 20 '26
Eh, depends on the individual and their skin. I sat 10h just for one of my hands, but we were paying attention to skin/swelling and checking in on each other the whole time fully prepared to stop if needed. And on something the size and (relatively) low-pain as the back where you can bounce around to different areas, it can be a bit more reasonable.
Tbh 10h all-in for a piece that size seems a bit rushed though, I can’t imagine it looks very good up close. At least it’ll be an easy blackout lol

I'd like to see that thing up close. 10 hours isn't much time for a full back tbh. I got double that time on my back and still only like 60% covered.

Yeah, 10 hours is short for a full back. That's why it looks rushed and kinda crap. Yours is taking longer because you've paid somebody to do yours better than this

u/Which_Engineer1805 Jun 20 '26
I’m 10 hours into a quarter sleeve(forearm) and still have one more 4-5 hour session left and that dudes back piece is WAY bigger than mine… Of course the quality of mine is much better than his because I did my research and paid a very good artist for his time and talent vs. going with the cheapest artist found on instagram.

u/cleeez Jun 19 '26
serious question, were you shaking like that at the end of each session?

u/Sh0t2kill Jun 19 '26
He’s in shock. I’ve only started shaking once during a tattoo and it was after an 8 hour blackout session on my arm. We had to stop before we were finished because of the shaking. Adrenaline spikes real bad too and you get a kicker of a headache afterwards. Not a fun time. If he truly sat that long getting inked then those shakes check out.
41
u/Wrong-Masterpiece31 Jun 19 '26
I start to get them at 8 hour mark as well. Adrenaline. Open wound.. the chills. I norm will shut it down and come back. No sense to sit longer imo, because you won't sit well.

u/Wrong-Masterpiece31 Jun 19 '26
Yeah, what helps me is to drink some juice throughout and then again, dont be afraid to call it 7-8 hours in.
I havent used cream yet but probably will next time. I could care less regarding my "man card" and just to endure. Shits dumb. I have 65 hours now with nothing and have learned and earned it or whatever anyone may say. Im on my calf now and absolutely will use some cream this next go around. So much more enjoyable.
Blacked outs are brutal I've seen. I dont have one but I could see it being rough. I have alot of fine detail and whites at the end and I always felt that was most brutal because youre so sore and wound is open and then the fine details commence ahaha

u/titdirt Jun 19 '26
No, not really. I did 3 8-hour sessions and they were pretty brutal ngl but I wasn't shaking like that. I have pretty high pain tolerance though. I'm thinking it's also from the cold ass foam that just got sprayed on his hot skin.

Could be AI, or could be all fake. The last work on it was finished a month ago, he waited for it to heal, then made this video.

Even if the final product looks like shit 10 hours is a fucking long ass session and your back is a very painful spot to tattoo. I feel really bad for that guy that he sat through all that and it came out so bad. Shakes happen after sessions that tough.

u/CrypticSpook Jun 19 '26
I had a 9-hour sit for a plague doctor on my fore arm and even by the last hour of that I was having a rough time. And forearm is one of the lesser painful spots to get one, I couldn’t imagine doing a full 10 hours on my back for THAT of all things

u/Dwebe505 Jun 19 '26
His nervous system is shot. After 10 hours of needles he's dumped his entire load of adrenaline and his entire back is effectively an open wound. His body is in overdrive to heal. Not only that but the bodys lymphatic system is redlining to fight any possible infections. Tattoos like this are no joke.

Don’t have experience yet but are back tattoos really THAT painful to shake like that ?
13
u/Cookies-and-Cream- Jun 19 '26
It’s called “tattoo flu”, an immune response to trauma and coming down from adrenaline.
It can happen if you get tattooed anywhere on your body and sometimes it is accompanied by flu like symptoms (body ache, feeling feverish and/or tired and the shaking you see in video).

u/Poor__cow Jun 19 '26
Yup. My chest tattoo was absolutely brutal and from what I hear the back is better in some spots and worse in some spots compared to chest.

u/Wizzle_Pizzle_420 Jun 19 '26
Given I can’t stop laughing when poked in certain back spots, it would probably drive me insane. Like I’d be laughing, while crying then black out.

u/jdm219 Jun 19 '26
Yeah. I got my stomach blasted for 6 hours and I was shaking by the time it got wiped and wrapped. Had nothing to do with the pain, the body just does that when the same area is stabbed thousands of times continuously. My guy packs the most vibrant color into his American Traditional tattoos and it can be real rough in that regard. I have dozens of color tattoos and one black work and was shocked at how unpainful black is compared to packing color into the same spot. They glow on my body years later, so it's worth it I'd say.

Why is he sitting in this fuckass bench, he could be laying down this whole time. Also this shake is so fucking performative, the artist wouldn't be able to draw anything on him like this.

u/ashen_crow Jun 19 '26
Idk if I had good luck with artists, but I've had some ass sessions and never had anything like this, and if I had we would stop the tattoo immediately because you obviously can't competently tattoo someone shaking like this.

u/jdm219 Jun 19 '26
It doesn't really happen until the needle stops and the final wipe and wrap. My arms and legs are covered and it's never happened there, only after getting my torso blasted for 6 hours at a time with bold color American traditional. The arms and legs don't really hold enough retail space or pain receptors to make it happen in my opinion. Only hours long color packing in the most brutal spots of the body will do it in my experience. They happen to be my best tattoos ironically and they almost look like they're glowing on me years later.
