Hi everyone!

There is a chance that I'm finally going to get the tattoo I've wanted for ages on Saturday (26th) when I'm out in Glasgow.
My issue is that I'm so terrified of needles I'm already panicking just thinking about the idea.
I'm going with someone who's said they're planning to get one anyway so I can go along, see how it's done and what happens, and then make a decision on the spot to save worrying about it all week.

My issue is this: The two places I'm considering getting it are two of the more painful places to get a tattoo. (At least, someone working in a parlour told me that)
It's a toss up between my wrist or my kind of chesty/heart area (it's really sentimental for more reasons than one, and that is also somewhere easily covered for work and such) so which would you suggest?

Also, I've heard that it gets quite itchy for a few days afterwards so what's the best way to combat that? I already have SudoCreme and moisturiser, is there anything else I might need?
Any information is appreciated! I might be making a snap decision depending on how things go, but I do want to be informed and know what I'm doing.
