How much is my tattoo going to cost?
I charge for my time. It is currently $150 an hr.
I am always willing to design for your budget. Design, placement, and size, coloring all go into how much time it will take to complete a tattoo.
I’m not too fond of giving price quotes over messaging. Without seeing your final design sized in front of me, it's hard to estimate time. I will try and provide the highest and lowest I think it could be, but it is not a set price. You will need size, body placement, picture references, and a description of color to get a ballpark price.
My minimum is $150.
Can you draw my tattoo?
My preference is to design and tattoo all in one session. My reasoning for this is a lot of my time is wasted when I draw what I think is a good tattoo. Many clients don't prefer my art, but like the art, they find on Pinterest or the internet. So my preference is to draw on a tablet in front of my clients to direct me better to design the tattoo they imagined.
For clients that do insist on my art and more extensive projects, I will design ahead. I can only take on 2 to 3 large-scale drawing projects a month. And they will be required to put down a drawing deposit of $125. $75 goes towards the tattoo like a regular tattoo deposit, and the other $50 will go towards my time for the hours I spend drawing the design. For extremely large desi
Are you open? Can I walk in?
Yes and no....our shop is open but appointment only. Sometimes artists will be there to answer questions, and sometimes they won't. If you are serious about a tattoo, it's best to book an appointment to ensure you will get service. I very rarely do walk-ins.
