Pricing

I aim to be as up front with prices as I can.

I currently charge $135 an hour.

Rule of thumb; Tattoos over 12 inches are charged by the hour, tattoos under 12 inches are priced by piece.

All new tattoos require a deposit (non-refundable):

  • Tattoos over 1 hour, deposit is $100

  • Tattoos under an hour (approx. under 2 inches) deposit is $50

    All deposits are applied to the final cost of the tattoo on the day of the appointment.

I take cash, Venmo, and card. There is a small fee for using a card

I give each client an initial cost quote range when you first submit an inquiry. Keep in mind I tend to quote people on the high end of the potential cost. That way the only surprise would be the final cost being lower than expected. Once I have a clear idea of the tattoo subject, size and location I can get you a more accurate cost.

If we need to split up the appointment into multiple sessions to split up the cost I am more than happy to do that.

Why is the deposit non-refundable?

There are a few reasons I charge a non-refundable deposit.

I spend time drawing up the design ahead of time, so the deposit can help cover anytime I spent working on a tattoo I may never get to tattoo.

If a client cancels within 72-48 hours of the appointment, it is valuable time for me and can sometimes be hard to fill in that space, which means lost working hours. The deposit ensure that if a client cancels I can still recuperate some income from the lost time slot.

I totally understanding when life events happen that will prevent you from making your appointment. I recommend rescheduling your appointment instead of canceling to avoid forfeiting your deposit.

I am also happy to transfer a deposit to someone else if you decide you want to give up your spot to a friend or family member.
