Tattoo cost

Every person who first decided to get a tattoo for himself begins to come up with an idea, decides on which part of the body the work will be applied and almost immediately becomes interested in the cost of the upcoming work. And then it turns out that different craftsmen have completely different prices! What to do and how to choose a master so as not to make a mistake and get a quality work? Often, the unlucky client chooses the artist with the lowest cost, as a result, as a rule, disappointment awaits him as the least of the unpleasant consequences of a poor-quality tattoo. And the worst thing that can happen is infection with viral infections such as hepatitis C in conditions that hardly meet the requirements of sterility. Of course, you can put up with an ugly, poorly performed work. Or spend a lot of money getting it removed or covered by a professional. Therefore, you should figure out what makes up the cost of a tattoo..

Tattoo cost – all about tattoo prices and their formation

Assessment of the complexity of the work

First of all, the master assesses the complexity and volume of work. Making a 10x10cm black square is much easier and faster than a realistic portrait of the same size. Or, for example, a tribal tattoo will be much easier to complete than a similarly sized biomechanical tattoo. Accordingly, each work is assessed by the master individually. The cost also depends on the amount of work: a small tattoo done in one session will be cheaper than working on a large area of ​​skin, on which several sessions are spent.

Performer’s skill

An important factor in the cost of the work is the professionalism of the tattoo artist. A tattoo artist should be an artist, ideally if he has an art education. As with any art form, talent and skillful hands are essential. A beginner artist most often works in a studio for a more famous and popular tattoo artist, where he gains a name and authority in the tattoo environment. Consequently, his work will cost slightly less than the work of a seasoned pro. There is a category of burglar masters, we are not talking about those professionals who arrange individual studios with all the necessary equipment. We are talking about those would-be masters who stuff tattoos in unsanitary conditions, most often with homemade machines, and instead of sterilizing equipment and using disposable consumables, at best, needles or a string are boiled. Such a master will not take much for the work, he is ready to do it for his acquaintances for some symbolic gift, for example, an alcoholic present. There is no need to talk about the quality of work here, most likely the client will be disappointed and upset, to put it mildly. The worst thing is that in such conditions you can easily reward a person with viral and bacterial infections..

Consumables and equipment

The cost of a tattoo also consists of the cost of consumables: needles, gloves, napkins, absorbent diapers, paint caps, pigments themselves, tips, plasters, transfer paper, disinfectant solutions, petroleum jelly, etc. The cost of renting a studio, the cost of sterilization equipment, salaries of studio staff, electricity costs and others also affects the price of work..

Output

Summing up, we can conclude that “cheap” almost always equals “bad”, and a good tattoo is an expensive tattoo..
