PRICING
Here is my post-2020 rate for all styles, small, standard, and session.
​
$150 hourly / $100 minimum
​
What is it worth?
​
The more details in a tattoo, the more time, strategy, and expertise is required.
A small traditional piece will cost less than a sleeve filled with portraits.
As a rule, tribal and Celtic work is extremely time-consuming.
Planning a sleeve is half the battle of getting it done, and thus why it will always look and flow better than a body filled with random hodgepodge.
​
As you know, any craft requires time, materials, and education, none of which are free. After the first iteration of Covid-19, materials became scarce. When I could actually find materials, they were being rationed at the manufacturer level to my vendors who, in turn, were forced to sub-ration these materials to me at a much higher cost. As of this post, prices continue to increase to the wholesaler and end user, 300% in some cases. None of us have seen material costs this high, especially quality materials used by picky professionals. A box of rubber gloves is still over 3x what we used to pay before 2020. This world has lost its mind.

I reserve the right to price my work fairly based on time, materials, complexity and customer attitude.
