Pricing
I price my tattoos at an hourly rate of $150-$175/hr sliding scale. My full day rate (4.5hrs-6.5hrs) is priced at $700-$800 sliding scale. Breaks for food etc. are not charged.
My minimum is $150 for both flash and customs. Customs have a drawing fee that is part of your deposit and is not subtracted from the final cost. My drawing fee ranges from $30-$100, depending on the size and complexity of the custom.
I try to work with budgets whenever possible, and I give reduced rates for larger projects!
Sliding scale pricing:
All of my tattoo prices are offered on a sliding scale to help make my work more financially accessible. The sliding scale operates on an honor system—I trust you to choose the amount that feels right for your situation. If you’re able to pay toward the higher end, I kindly ask that you do so, as this is my main source of income. Your support helps keep my practice sustainable while allowing others with different financial needs to access my work.
Prices are based on size, complexity, and placement of your design. (Arms and legs are generally faster to tattoo than torso, chest, and back).
I accept cash on the day of the appointment. Tips are appreciated but not required, and can also be non-monetary if you prefer—artwork, books, plants, etc...
Abstract linework tattoos are priced at $200 the first hour and then $150-$175/hr sliding scale for any additional hours. This is because in general these tattoos take me a lot less time to tattoo.
Freehand tattoos are only charged with total tattoo time. The time it takes for me to draw the design on your body is not charged.
