How tattoo pricing works?

At the core of our unique tattoo pricing system lies the unmatched expertise of our artists. Their talent and precision shape the value of each piece, going beyond traditional measures like size and time rates.

By size

Our tattoo pricing is influenced by size, with smaller tattoos being more affordable and larger ones requiring a larger investment. This approach takes into account the amount of ink and detail required, both of which increase with size. This method is commonly used for tattoos of consistent size, regardless of complexity.

With tattoo pricing by time, the cost of your tattoo is determined by the hours spent on its completion. This transparent method charges an hourly rate, covering the artist's time spent on design, inking, and refining your tattoo. It's best suited for designs where the time needed can be estimated beforehand.
