Yikes... for $200 an hour this artist better be the ****! I've never paid more than $150 an hour and that's only for the first hour. When I sit for long sessions she charges me much less.


Thats alot that my tattooist only charges £50 an hour, hes reli good hes won awards and everything i wudnt got ta anyone else.

I would imagine rates depend somewhat on the area you are in! Here in east TX most shops charge $100-150/hr. I would also consider the quality of work you are getting for your money...you often get what you pay for! I'd pay a great artist $200/hr before settling for a mediocre one @ $100!

Ya'll are over paying, by well, a good amount. I've never paid more than $80 an hour. I've had the same artist both times, he's AMAZING, been doing it for longer than I've been alive, and he knows his ****. He was knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions when I came in for a consultation, and he owns the shop. I now live about 45 to an hour's drive away from them, but I will continue to go there. $200 an hour starting fee is way too much... especially considering from the there, depending on the complexity of the piece, it can be more expensive than the starting rate.

I think $150 is a fair amount for what my artist charges. All my large ink in completely custom. He free handed it on my body with a sharpie then went back over it when the tattoo gun. he's fast, gets a lot of work done in a short time, and the ink sticks. Some of my ink is 5 years old and still look fresh. All that...is worth a 1504 to me.

You have only one picture of a tattoo that you have. It's not much to judge how good your artist is from that one tattoo because it doesn't have much going on. You posted a link to his tattoo shop but you never told us his name. There are several artist on there. 80$ seem a bit cheap to me....but i will re-evaluate that once I've seen his portfolio.

So...whats your artist name?

Can`t get my tattoo to post in the thread. So I changed my profile picture.

My son did my tattoo. He owns his own tattoo business.
