How much will my tattoo cost?

Each of our tattoos are unique, individual pieces of artwork that reflect the interests and desires of our clients. This means it’s often difficult to provide a price with any certainty until we have fully discussed your ideas. Once we’ve had a discussion about your needs and settled on a design we will provide a final price range for your tattoo.

Of course, we do realise that many clients will want to have an idea of price before coming into the studio, and because of this we provide a very rough guide to our pricing below.

To book your tattoo appointment you will need to pay a booking fee that is equivalent to one hour's tattoo time (£80). The booking fee is deducted from the last hour of last tattoo session and ensures that your appointment slot is reserved for you. It is refundable should you choose to cancel giving us 48 hours notice. We will not begin any design work beyond the initial free consultation without a booking fee being paid.

Tattoos that take less than 3 hours:
Tattoos that we predict will take less than 3 hours may be charged within a set price range, quoted specifically for that exact piece. The minimum charge for any tattoo is £80, which covers any small tattoo on a limb of up to an hours tattoo time, this charge covers the set up costs and design time. We do not charge extra to design your tattoo.

Tattoos that take more than 3 hours:
Tattoos that take longer than 3 hours are charged at an hourly rate of £80 per hour. The length of time it takes to complete a tattoo (and therefore the price) varies with size, style, design complexity and the area of the body to be tattooed. Flat, stable areas such as forearms, thighs and calves are usually relatively quick to tattoo compared to trickier areas such as the ribs, sternum, abdomen and neck which take longer to tattoo and are therefore usually more expensive.
