$150 gets you a 2x2 these days. They are out here charging $600-$800 for palm sized flash.

My guy is expensive, and he 100% without a doubt deserves to charge more. I have a half sleeve of Zdzisław Beksiński's "The Trumpeter" that all together was 24hrs of time in the chair and about $3,200 after tip

It’s not rude, it’s REAL!!! So many “artists” are over charging and it’s insane. I had a client come in the other month with a palm size tattoo that she said she paid $800 for. A very mediocre tattoo mind you.

I paid 550$ for this guy, covers the whole forearm. And honestly? She could've charged more. 700$ or 800$ would still be fair for this size.

And they take their time I had a client show me floral on their thigh that was okay and they told me their artist charged them $900, I couldn't believe it. Three medium sized flowers should be no where near that and they were an aprentice. I'm only 3 years in and I'm still struggling leaning what is fair for me to charge but Id rather under charge than over

I have a lot of “cheap” tattoos that were in the $200-$300 range. I also have a sleeve that has $10,000 invested and isn’t done. The difference in art quality is extremely apparent. I don’t mind paying a premium for the phenomenal art but I also still very much like my cheaper fun tattoos! They’re super special to me and are loved just as much as my expensive sleeve.

And if I can add to what you’re saying, it also has a regional thing to it too because if you’re in a very low-cost place, the tattoo cost is gonna reflect. I’m in Monterey California. It’s a giant tourist destination. It’s very expensive to live here and often times we get told that we’re very expensive just because somebody’s used to getting tattooed in Royal Ohio.

there's a 70 year old biker dude around my area that does tattoos from a spare room in his house. He doesn't charge crazy prices but the work isn't insane. You get what you pay for. He's got a decent chunk of change from me
