What determines the price of a tattoo?
There are many factors that might determine how much your tattoo costs. One, and perhaps the most obvious, is the size of the tattoo. If you want something small you will pay much less than you will if you want a full back piece or a sleeve. Another factor is where the tattoo is going on your body. Some places are harder to work with than others. For example, if you want something on your upper arm, you will most likely pay less than you would if you wanted it on your lower back. The lower back normally stretches out the original stencil to about twice it’s size when you sit in the chair and therefore takes more time and effort on the artist’s part. Many artists feel less comfortable working on the hands and feet because those particular spots are harder to heal properly. Many shops have pre-priced flash sheets for you to choose from. However, if that is not an option or if you require a custom piece of artwork, the artist will take into consideration the above factors when pricing you
