AN INK-COVERED creative who's proud of her body art revealed the one needle session she'd never sit through again.
Even though she's a tattoo artist herself, the influencer admitted her chest tattoo was far too painful.
Tattoo artist Mara (@maralilithmakesart) is based in Germany, but people all over the world admire her work on social media.
In a video on TikTok, she got real about one of her most painful – and stunning – permanent works of art.
As Mara stood in a pair of leggings and a sports bra, several tattoos were immediately visible.
Both of her arms had intricate designs on them. There was even a large butterfly on her leg, visible through the mesh of her leggings.
But there was one design that wasn't visible to the naked eye.
Mara lifted the hem of her cropped top to show her "underboob" tattoo, a detailed, feathery fringe that extended down her ribcage.
Despite the unpleasantness of the tattooing process, Mara said the tattoo itself had a unique and irresistible charm.
She described it as "A tattoo I would never get again because pain, but would get 100 times again because."

Sparkle emojis on either side of the word "because" conveyed her strong attachment to the hard-won design.
In the comment section, a viewer asked her to rank the pain on a scale of one to 10, with 10 representing the pain of "being stabbed."
"Definitely 10," Mara responded right away. Other inked-up fans agreed with her assessment.
"The pain is crazy, but the spot is so worth it," one woman wrote.
"I have a dragon in the same place and it's easily my favorite tattoo," someone else said. "Best placement."
"Definitely worth it though!" another admirer agreed. "It looks amazing!"
One follower tried their best to explain why an underboob tattoo is so excruciating to sit through.
"I have a tattoo in the same place but slightly smaller, and the pain is incomprehensible," they wrote.
"It vibrates through your whole body," they said, trying to describe how the needlework feels. "Very specific type of pain."
