AN EXCLAMATION POINT WAS $100. *forgets they are in LA*
Gwendalynn Alvarado lol sameee my whole mouth dropped
Not only in LA though...
As they said themselves tattoo shops often have a starting tariff. This is mostly somewhere around 100,- dollars, depending on the store. Mostly goes up to something simple of approx. 10cm.
And u forgot a question mark
I got a more detailed and bigger tattoo than that exclamation point for $120 and it looks great with clean lines and healed quick and great. Got it in Florida btw
it doesn't matter how small or easy the tattoo seems, you're paying for someone to clean and set up their station plus the labour and the cost of them being there. they need to cover utilities and rent as well, so while its clearly profitable it might not be to the degree that you think.
2:49 100 bucks for !, ok google tell me where the nearest prison is.
Or do a stick and poke and hate that you saved the $100 bucks for the rest of your life.
Usually tattoo shops have a minimum price so no matter how small the tattoo is its gonna cost that minimum or more so that shops minimum was probably $100. It's worth it to go to a good shop even if it's a little pricey because that stuff is gonna be on ur body FOREVER u wanna make sure the artist knows what they're doing.
COME OVER ILL DO IT FOR 1$
clarice santana that’s sketchy but for a dollar, hopefully it won’t do as much damage as I have already done to myself 💁🏼♀️ where you at?
@@simpshrimp2578 lol
Customer: So, how much for my exclamation point?
Tattoo artist: 100$
Customer: !!!
Tattoo artist: That would have been 300$.
🤣🤣🤣
Lmao you made my day man thank you.
There’s a shop minimum for most shops so the shop minimum or the artist minimum was probably 100$
This comment made my day 😂
@@josesatanas2205 yep. I paid $100 to have Pura Vida in cursive on my wrist. I know that wasn’t $100 worth of work, but that was the shop minimum
The trick for smaller tattoos like the "!" , get those when you are getting a bigger tattoo at the same time.
You save an extra day and maybe even $100 doing so.
Exactly what I do.
Smart man
Yeah I got my last name with roses on my forearm then my small dagger right after and I got a deal on it
Yes very smart I got a lot of my small filler tats when I did my first sleeve and saved so much time and money!
My wife wanted me to get an infinity symbol on my ring finger because I wont wear a ring so i asked my artist to do it at the end and he just did it then with the red he was using on me other arm. It took like 8 seconds. If I just walked in he said they would have charged $40 which is still half of the shop minimum.
Asian guy: $500
Tattoo: $1000
Asian guy: GOOD FOR YOU :D
I think it’s a woman
@@JohnJones-tz5ph No, he's a guy
@@JohnJones-tz5ph lol wut
I think she’s a butch?
John Jones he’s married with 2 kids so lol no.
Why is everyone saying Taka overcharges his stuff over one guess? Jose literally guessed double of almost every price 😂.
Taka underguessed on stuff too.
Basically Kai he hit us with that 4K and our hearts went 🕳
the asian dude literally said 4000 when the actual price was just 700. yes he's overcharging.
Lunch Box what about all of the times before that when he underestimated? VS Jose who over-guessed almost all of them?
Hehe I’m your 1,100 like and it keeps changing cuz of me
As a tattoo artist, and a heavily tattooed person, a lot of these prices were INSANE and I am shocked these poor people were charged so much for such simple/low quality work :( (but don’t get me wrong some of these tattoos were stunning) like that exclamation point should have been $50 shop minimum. Literally done with like a drop of ink.
Different shops have different minimums
yeah i think i paid 90 for a script on my arm that is :IGY6 in old english lol. but also just the outline for my forearm length piece which I drew was almost 500. just for the outline so far. but the artist is very very worth it and reworked my design a bit and improved it for sure. guy is awesome.
It definitely was the shop minimum. I'm assuming that the photos they used were of tattoos from different employees meaning they probably got it in the LA area. Most tattoo places here have their minimum at $80-$100. Which is why they all guessed that.
yeah the exclamation mark could be done by an apprentice for $50
Literally exposed them for being over priced for like 80% of the tats
Brandon Patterson exactly
Brandon Patterson It could also be that money is worth less in certain regions like in different parts of the US. It doesn’t help that buzzfeed is located somewhere in the Bay Area so everything is going to “cost more”, because people have higher incomes.
“Overpriced” just means you can’t afford it. Tattoos are luxury items. It’s also true that there’s a big difference in price between east and west coast.
@@JamesMinerTattoo tattoos literally have the most inconsistent pricing there is, I dont fw the fact that the same tats I got, people charge triple for the same ones, which baffles me which is why I said they over priced bc there are artists that do the same art style, just as well, no infections good rep all that for less then then some people, and like I know shops have a minimum, alot of tat artists in a shop rent their spot I get it but idk it's just crazy
Brandon Patterson I feel ya, tattoo pricing is very weird. And I get how the wide range in price for tattoos that seem the same is confusing.
I don’t think anyone is going to get a tattoo from Taka with his prices: $4000 😂😂 But he is so funny tho + his work is actually very good!!
I was gonna say the same lol
I just followed him on Instagram and I would for sure pay $4000 for his work. It's fire 🔥🔥🔥
4K is perfectly reasonable for a good artist
Lyndey N. Yeah he is very good 🔥
Jamie Dąbrowiecki sure, not saying that! A good tattoo is def worth the money!
Takas guess:For this I'd say about $50,000 NO um $65,000
Actual price:$150
Good for you!
😂😂😂
IKR🤣🤣🤣
They’re only judging them on the size and not the quality, of course that sleeve was going to be cheap when it was probably done in a backyard shed
Bella R yes of course the qualify
Sleeve was really well done though.
koi lol
@@gunthrology lol no it wasn't
@Bella, probably didnt want to shout out the bad quality
I wouldn’t go to the Asian guy he I think he would charge far too much 😂
Let's Play Mobile facts
Let's Play Mobile depends on how good they are and what they style is
Christina Scroggins they guessed so much more majority of the time than the other artists for the same tattoo
Well the Asian guy said $2400 and 4000$. That was way over board for these tattoos.
On the other hand regarding the other tattoos in the beginning their pricing wasn't that bad. I mean they usually were about $50-100 off which wasn't that bad.
i literally just commented the same thing lmao
Favorite part of the video is when he started doing calculations with all those geometric shapes 😂😂
that's not a she !
The N wOrd They never said she.
People really try to start an altercation out of nothing 😂
And then got it catastrophically wrong
@@naranciaghirga9532 uhhh what? he never said she
Half of these tattoos were so badly done. Really not worth their prices.
Totally agree! The record player and astronaut were the only good ones. You couldn't pay me to get most of those.
I guessed right on most of these because how hard I was judging the poor work.
Just goes to show you how tattoo artist rip you off overall
Like most tattoos out there.
In that case then literally every tattoo is bad
The quality of tattoos I get in Colombia for the price are amazing.
Hey
Oh yeah, I travelled there and got some quality work on a half sleeve for 250. The key to any great tattoo though is to just find an artist you like who can execute the idea you want.
same in my country
What sucks about it is that all of our clients want really cheap tattoos with very high quality render
I got my first tattoo in Colombia recently. Great place great artist and great result. Full left chest covered in a detailed black and grey lion for about 140$. It’s crazy
this makes me appreciate my tattoo artist so much. good work and he’s never charged me over $200 for anything
Where is located?
Where is this guy located you must not have anything bigger than may be a palm
I would be so happy to just talk to the Asian guy. He has a great personality
Yeah but 4000 for that tattoo is crazy. How much is his personality worth to you?
VluggeJapie $4000
seems annoying
Seems to have genuine anger issues.
amp true
No wonder their prices are outta whack... they're from LA. I know a guy in Philly, does AMAZING work, is quick and not overpriced...
Instagram?
The market is bigger out there plus everyone is trying to tatt a celebrity
I'm from philly! Can you tell me the artist?
Pmo
@@Exquisiteneon Jason @ Nobleheart on 611
You know the Asian is killing people on prices 😂
Iv been to his shop. His prices arent bad really since he does really solid Japanese style work. But i agree he seriously overcosted on that sleeve.
Should note that I did not get any work from him. He was unsure he could do what i wanted. Which i appreciated. I like a good simple answer.
but the white was too cheap
@Shadow Man
Saying it would be fair for the asian to overprice his work, that would be racist.
Corona Pyrrhus wtf 😂
@Corona Pyrrhus How is that racist all he said was Asian because he didn't know the guys name XD
Almost all of them were horrible and WAY overpriced.
Taka's reactions are the best 😂
I love him
Her faces screams “this is waay overpriced” on some of them loooool
I’ve been tattooing for three years and I don’t know where their getting these prices from
Donald Lee How do you usually determine the price for your work?
Where do YOU get your prices? Sounds generally standard for all the tattoo videos I’ve seen on CZcams which are generally people from bigger more expensive cities or well known people from ink master or something. Even irl, I asked around in Minneapolis and shop minimums were lowest $70
The video title should’ve been:
“Tattoo artists reveal that they’re from LA after over pricing generic tattoos.”
Nobody :
Taka Tamada : *I'LL WILL GO FOR 300 BUCKS*
Dorras
I'll will.... make sense
Nobody:
José Herrera: "...fOr SoMeThiNg LiKe ThiS"
"700 will get you something like the size of your hand"
Tattoo as big as like 5 hands: "500?"
why the people that say those thing always have only black tattos from like 5 different artist?
Yeah it was the size of 5 hands and looked like my 8 year old drew it.
James J. Henderson he did say it looked old so I’m thinking he calculated prices from back then? But I noticed that to lol
My anubis hand tattoo realism and colored cost me 200$
Azurefanger every tattoo shop I’ve been to has said 200 for palm side
Worries me how inconsistent pricing can range, even in my own opinion to theirs and actual cost, you could be getting a deal, you could be getting ripped off.. who knows? 🤷🏾♂️
With tattoos it's hard to have a given price because of all the conditions and the ink the tattoo artist uses + you can (like clothes) pay for the name of the artist
Gabriel Albores tattoo industry sucks
people charge whatever they think they can get away with. The prices of "art" are always subjective
They actually charge what they think there time and effort is worth, plus supplies and taxes. If you pay a small amount for a tattoo it's not going to be great
No one :
That one Asian guy: I’m going to guess 4000
The actual price: 700
I died way to hard at this
I thought it was a lesbian woman
Hecatrice LOL
That guy had no concept of prices at all, and he is a professional?!
@@archangelz558 my guess is dude works at a somewhat famous shop that has higher price points
@Greg Fakerson its a meme
IM AMAZED. CANT BELIVE HOW EXPENSIVE TATTOS ARE IN THE US
FrOsTy probably bc their actually tattoo artist that are good yk
Pretty much same in France, Germany and Japan, around 100€/hour
in Chile, that exclamation point would cost no more than 30 dollars xD
@@FrOsTyVeggeto TBH thats about how much they would cost but tattoo shops put in a minimum amount to pay for any tattoo. The lowest in my area is $60 if you get a super small tattoo. Its cause anything less than $60 is a waste of their time since its so valuable.
@@goat8761 I'd say it's because of their time and materials. From what I can see, these tattoos were done very poorly. AND they have started to fade

Amanda Miller3ate6 omg ikr
iPhones gonna last you a few years, tattoo last you for life
Amanda Miller3ate6 Tattoos are red flag. Finding a woman without one= priceless
True...but they're not putting $800 down when they go into Sprint or Verizon. Most likely it's probably $200/$300. I get what you mean but even rich folks are kinda stingy with tips.
A guy came in with an apple watch and nice clothes you get from a high end store and onky tipped $20 to my boss. It depends on the person tbh.
@@thereisnopandemic gross.
Oh my god $100 for a little ! Sign?! That would of been a tenner at Magaluf 😂😂😂
That's because there is a minimum cost at every shop. They have to book a time and pay for the materials plus pay somebody.
My mate had a smile face on his arse for 10 quid deal of a century it wasn’t perfect round like but that’s what you get for moving in the chair
@@mezmanmerrill7412 if a pack of needles cost more than a tenner, you think hes gona be changing the needles for each person 😂

Yes, thank you sorry english is not my first language
Bruhhh that guy said $4000 but it was $700 ik he be taxing for his tats 😂😂😂😂
ryan jugg it’s a full sleeve lol, he’s judging on if a good artist was doing a full sleeve, the quality wasn’t great so that’s why it was cheap. People pay 700 for 1/4 of a sleeve let alone a full one
We want more of this!!
So if tattoo artists don’t really know how much these tattoos are, how do they expect clients not to ask for a ballpark estimate? Lol
instead of asking for a price estimate because tattoo artist get offended by that for some reason ask the receptionist how much they charge per hour and you can estimate from there
Man idc I ask the receptionist how much would it be, usually they don’t care.
because they cant put an estimate on their art, usually you go in for a consultation and tell them your budget
This video made me realize I’m not financially ready for any tattoo any time soon 😅
the price completely depends on where you live. a friend of mine did a small taurus symbol and it only costed him $40, a lot cheaper than that $100 exclamation mark.
I got you i work with your budget
Cecilia Lopez tattoos are overrated. Women without them are way hotter.
Just gotta save up...like that jar that says "for my new tattoo" 😂😂
These prices are ludicrous haha
Wow the variances of prices to size and type of tattoos was wild!
Loved how Taka started blushing!
more of these please!!
I sculpt and paint and the hardest thing about selling my art is pricing!! Ive gotten good advice, price it high as it’s worth a lot, depending on how many hours goes into it, and someone who has the money will buy it. I spend so many hours doing tiny detailed work, mixing custom colors, etc. the materials aren’t worth as much as the time that goes into it and your personal designs. I just doubt myself and think I wouldn’t pay that much for this.. the pricing struggle is real ✌🏼
i love how the first impression of the asian guy is way better than what he ends up guessing

@@renatoreyes6583 usually depends on time spent, so bigger usually longer - more line work, but thats also a factor
Asian dude must be charging some ridiculous prices lmao! (His guess: $4000 - Real answer: $700)
Yea but they’re in L.A. where everything is crazy expensive so even thought is is a little overpriced his tattoo shop would probably charge around 2000+ for it for him to guess that high
Is he/she a dude? I genuinely just assume she was a girl?
@@OneEmanation The Asian one is obviously a male. But just to clarify we are talking about the one in the white tank w/ a patterned throw over.
He guessed under a few times too. But are you going to trust a sleeve to an artist that isn't good and in demand? Because that same artist is usually going to cost.
Dude just went yolo
Lol definitely never going to the Asian guy he clearly charges too much
Rad Con that’s what I thought😂
Exactly 😂
Maybe he does good work which is why he gets to charge more?
to be fair the asian guy is the owner of a tattos shop with more qualified artist and if someone will try to give im 700 bucks for a one color kitsune fox full size he will not waste is time or is employess time
Azurefanger are you his lawyer?
Its obvious these people are overcharging people for tattoos
The only difference between tattooed people and non tattooed people is that tattooed people don't care if you are not tattooed
Cool.
Abu Khizar tattooed people also have tattoos, while those without them do not. So there’s that as well.
That's so true. Honestly I cared a little in HS when people started getting basic tattoos. But now I have a few myself many years later and idc if you have or dont have em. It's like getting a tattoo just changes your perspective lolol
One exception: I’d judge a tattoo artist that doesn’t have tattoos. 😂🤷♀️
Yaw that’s true, unlike vegans ! Who care that your not vegan haha
They all seem so passionate about there work and I love it💯

Never settle for the cheapest tattoo. Do research before you jump into a artist. That way you’re stuck with something you will never regret. No ragrets.
No regrats! And Only god can juge me
You'll ragret nearly every tattoo sooner or later.
@Dustin Heath Everyone thinks they're the exception, especially women who get one in their teens or 20s
Depends on the country you live in though, expensive here for something the size of your hand would be $50 (average is about $20-30).
@@ArtyCraftZ why only women, don't lots of young men get drunk tattoos

What I learnt from this:
Tattoos in Australia are expensive. I paid $350 for two bees.
P J Yikes! I’m glad I got my “ode to Australia” tattoo when I came back from my study abroad trip! That, and I spent my last $20 AUS on heads or tales for shots of bourbon. 👀🤷♀️ LOL!
That's why many australians get their tattoo in Bali
Helga Christ ...And end up with massive infections!
Next time holla at me
I'm in Brisbane and I have 16 tatts and I usually go to apprentices, they're a lot cheaper, and keep an eye out for flash sales, that's where I get most of my tatts
I would rather pay more and not get infected with a blurry faded tattoo. If it's going to be on my skin forever, I'm not risking it. My tattoo was $550, if I live 60 more years that's only $9 a year. Some of yall spend more on McDonald's. Look for a good reputable artist, not a cheap one. Make sure they are comfortable in the style you want. Some artists are amazing in one style but terrible in another.
Yes! For sure! I’m not going to hire someone that specializes in calligraphy to do a Japanese-style tattoo.... just like someone wouldn’t hire an abstract painter to create a charcoal photo-realism piece.
I have a inner bicep piece and when I was looking for artists, I had to make sure they were really good with precision line/outline work... the piece could have turned out horribly if I chose the wrong artist!
EXACTLY, STUDY YOUR ARTISTS' AND THEIR PORTFOLIOS BEFORE YOU EVEN HAVE A MEETING
Being over priced and ripped off doesn’t always mean better sometimes all your doing is paying for a brand name .. doesn’t mean it’s better just cuz an artist doesn’t over charge doesn’t mean he’s bad or your going to be infected .. think realistic
And then again you could have donated those 550$ to a charity or smth.
KeepitExile did you not read the part where I said more reputable? Never said more expensive is better. I just know people who cheaped out on their tattoo with a copy cat instead of the original artist and regret the way it turns out.
When the guy said $700 for a hand sized tattoo I got the biggest look of wtf on my face. You must be going to the elite for that.
Fr...I had my whole ribcage done, a 4 and a half hour session, for $200. And it still looks phenomenal today.
@@shaggydabbydoo1468 lucky you)
Awww! I remember Denise from when she was still on Hollywood Blvd tattooing at Kayden's Creations. I think she was still an apprentice while i was a piercing apprentice.

Put the guy with the glasses on videos! He is funny af 😂😂
That Asian dude seems like a chill guy to hang with
Today I learned I've been getting good deals on my tattoos.
I like this game. Would be cool to have them guess the prices of each others' best works, and the original artist explain the reasoning.
Another episode of why is this in my CZcams recommendations but I’m gunna watch it anyway
Super fun to watch this!
Just learned I'm decent at apprasing old tattoos
Man tattoos are a complete rip off. Some of the prices are justified but $100 for a little 1” exclamation point is ridiculous in my opinion.
Certain stores have minimum prices. I have gone to a store with a minimum of $60 and one with $100. Depends on how well they tattoo.
Claudia leal Yeah if that was me I’d just make sure to get my full money’s worth instead of just the ! for $100 lol.
It’s pricey bc is in LA but actually high prices for small tattoos are not abusive when you find out how much the equipment necessary to tattoo costs. Usually tattoo artist use exclusive equipment for each client and throw it away after tattooing
@@HankJr. you do realise the minimum cost is there for a reason even for something as small as that. It covers the cost of setting up so for the co flex, the needles, the tiny pottle for the ink, covers them cleaning the table before and after you've been on it as well as their time etc. Works out cheaper per hour to get bigger tattoos, or book out a session to have multiple smaller tattoos
@@claudial3875 in the UK it would cost about $25 because that's the minimum
$100 for an exclamation point!!!??? anyway I need another episode of this this was cool.
The shop I wanna go to has a $100 dollar minimum and I want a pretty small tattoo. Do you guys think it would be smarter to get a string of a few little tattoos?
The Asian dude seems like a fun guy to kick it with!
Their mentality is the *LA/NY* big money tattoo prices when in the hood can get it for half the price and good looking quality tattoos 😅🤷🏻♂️
Rodrigo Salazar fr ! Lol the homie did a big ass rose on my arm for only 80 dollars !! If I went to a shop they would have charged me like 300!
"quality" yeah, where everything is washed with tap water, and used without any skill, whole piece with just one gun and one ink color.
Thanks, but I'll rather pay some more and get a tattoo that has perfect lines and heals well
@@Zaurkax14 Better yet, how about you don't get any tats and actually look presentable for a change
@@ArtyCraftZ oooh, don't worry bud, Macedonia will catch up with the rest of the world in next 50 years, maybe in that time you'll understand that you have no right to decide for other people, and that nobody cares about your personal taste.
And also, tattoos are a great way to get rid of close-minded people like you, so they go live in their bubble away from me, because apparently some ink in my body is giving them convulsions.
So, how about you stop writing unnecessary comments? I don't like chipotle but I'm not telling people to stop eating it, and you should do the same.
Okay you get what you pay for though, if you're getting them for half the price I'm 100% sure they look like great value tattoos. But hey if you have low standards for something that will be embedded in your skin then go crazy.
I like the astronaut tattoo that was dope!!!
5:25 I like how he stated that because it is art and the price will always be subjective
I think I guessed about half of them right. Pretty cool video concept
Hundred bucks for an exclamation point? This industry is lucrative.
The reason small tattoos can be expensive is because of a shop minimum - essentially a set up fee & the cost of paying the artist. There needs to be fresh supplies used for every tattoo to be sanitary - these supplies add up in cost.
@Gi Gi literally all the shops in my city, and I'm assuming others, have a minimum price of $80-$100. There are two things you are paying for. The supplies, and the artist's time. It adds up.
@Gi Gi I'm also talking in Canadian currency haha. I should also mention, there's also shop rent that a percentage of the price of every tattoo goes towards. Basically anything under an hour is the minimum price so the shop doesn't take a hit supply/rent wise.
You can make a minimum of 100$ an hour being a good tattoo artist ! If you are talented you can live well hahahah
i can get that for 20
I seriously never knew tattoos costed that much💀😭
This actually was reassuring 😂
Lmao I guessed the prices with the tattoo artists and did better 😂
Who remembers Jose from Shane’s video when Morgan got her first tattoo on her lip? 👀
cosmicc fairiess I KNEW I RECOGNIZED HIM OMG
okay but question; are all these tattoos charged at the artists' normal rates? did you guys look into that too?
i know parlors and artists that sometimes have deals and thank you specials/discount walk-ins for a cheaper rate than usual or sometimes even a flat rate. And it'd be nice to know what cities these tattoos came from as well. A tattoo from NYC or LA sure ain't gonna be the same price as somewhere in Wisconsin
Guy with glasses was hilarious, but I don’t want him to charge me lmao
When they zoomed in the girls face when she snorted
Never getting a tattoo in America, those prices for the quality are ridiculous 😂😂
Paying 100 dollars for that is a joke, don't go to a artist like that, LOL.
Most shops have a minimum (lowest I've seen is $60). Also, they're in LA so I'm sure tattoo prices are double most areas
@@christopherrecinos2988 Murica is bs. I show this to my artist in my area, he said he would charge 15 for the ! since its like 2 min work he say lol
@@bravosava You pay for more than just the actual work. The artists also need to sterilize everything, even for a small tattoo like that, and supplies aren't cheap. Not sure what country you're in where that tattoo is only $15, but it could also be economic differences/cost differences
@@bravosava if you're from Algeria or another country where average salary is 200$ then yeah, it's a lot for you, but ink, needles all the sanitizers cost money, also, if you get someone for that you need to prepare the place (sanitize it), do the actual tattoo, and then clean the place once again, so chances are that you can't sign a whole-day session this day, which is a loss.
That's just a minimum. Five exclamation marks would still be 100$.
In these kind of moments you don't pay for the tattoo, you pay for the time of the artist, for the ink and other things because you can't reuse them. This is why every tattoo shop has their minimum so you just pay for their minimum. You can get a bigger and just a better tattoo but if you just want that...you get only that.
I’m not a tattoo artist and only have one tattoo so far. Yet, I was closer to the prices than they were. Gives me confidence tbh. I’m aware now that I won’t be getting ripped off on any future ink jobs👍🏼
This is helpful for people who want to get their first tattoo.
Depends on where u got it. Ive been in CT at 150 per hr min IL for 80 per hr min
Ive been in MS for 60 p hr. Great artists
Argent King i love here and you’re correct , i know a few guys who do AMAZING TATTOOS, start at 100-150 hr. But they’re cool and will come down to fit ya budget
1:13 Yeah the age of the tatoo will affect this hugely - very difficult to price a tatoo if ya dont know when it was done.
I loved the moment of calculations with the Asian dude lol
The reason shops have a minimum is because of the set-up time and needles that will be expended even if it takes 5 minutes to do the tat. You still have to sterilize/sanitize and dispose of certain items, so the prep-work and expendable items costs must be paid for even if the tat is only 5 dollars worth of work.
That Asian dude is really upmarking his tats, let's now go to his parlor
Rocket Grunt Mason he’s a hsutler
Trust me, he wont miss yall. He is booked 5 days a week for MONTHS solid. He wont miss broke whiners who dont want high quality art 🤣🤣🤣
Is it just me or Tattoo prices in US are extremely high, here in EU - a small tattoo is around 40€ and a half sleeve is 250-300 €
Dankest Media where in EU?
$100 for ! ...looks like I’m never getting a tattoo
Ken Guidry that's just the shop minimum, other shops would do that for $30
