My mentality when it comes to pricing is, "I only charge, what I would pay."
When it comes to pricing, I strive to be fair and generous. I won't ever charge for a tattoo a price that I would not pay. With that, tattoos are forever; they will last longer than your favorite shirt/dress, be with you longer than your new car, and impact your self-esteem and love for your body. So you'll want to find an artist that is able to execute your tattoo in a way that it will hold up well overtime as well as bringing your vision to life.
Therefore, I believe tattoos are something people should not cheap out on, but rather invest in. Nevertheless, tattoos are not the most important thing in life and there are a lot of living necessities that take precedent so I try to make all my tattoos reasonable. Having different price options to make clients feel more comfortable in spending the money for their new tattoo. So see below for the pricing options:
Hourly: $250
minimum: $250
The hourly rate is great for those who don't exactly know what they want or how big. Or even for those who have a hard time sitting for a tattoo for a long time. That instead of booking a half or full day we can book a few hours instead.
Half day: $1000
My minimum tattoo rate is $250 for a 1 hour time block. So that we can make sure we get the right size and right location. Also, allowing conversation about what is the best for your tattoo and if there are any changes needed to be made.
full day: $1600
A half day session is a discounted rate at 200 per hour and a 5 hour time block. So by booking a half day session you will save $250.
A full day session is a discounted rate at 200 per hour and a 9 hour time block. And you'll save $650. For these all day sessions, I'll tattoo you 8 hours.
