Factors for Tattoo Prices. We will show you,

step by step, how to understand how much

your tattoo will cost. This will allow you to

make more information decisions when

planning, or evening negotiating price, for

a tattoo.

This article has been written for tattoo

beginners. However, we recommend that

even the most seasoned tattooer re-read

these  Factors every year. Keep yourself

Posted! Tattoo Prices can get complex, but if

you keep these six factors in mind, you will

always know EXACTLY what you are talking

about.

Tattooing has become a symbol of

identification for many of our

entertainers, whereby each tattoo an

entertainer has inscribed on his or her body

has a meaning in their lives. One of the

most important criteria in choosing a tattoo

is the cost of getting the tattoo.

Factors that determine tattoo

prices:

The selected artist

The cost of a tattoo will depend on the skill

of the artisan. Many professional artisans

usually charge per hour per work. With this,

one is guaranteed a good quality

professional work. The cost starts at $100

to $300 per hour and depending on the

size, it may augment to thousands of

dollars. If one wants a custom tattoo, the

price per hour can start from $50 to $300.

The place you want it

Where one chooses to have his or her tattoo

will depend on which part of the body the

tattoo will be. As the human body contains

nerves which have sensitivity receptors,

there are parts of the body that are very

sensitive than other parts. The more

sensitive parts will cost more than the less

sensitive parts. Sensitive parts include;

feet, hand, genitals, neck and sternum

while the less sensitive include; outer thighs,

buttocks, shoulder blades.

The colour of your choice

A tattoo that has a one color is less

expensive compared to a more colored one.

This is because a colored tattoo requires

more detail and the more detailed it is the

more time it will take, and since charges go

by hourly for people who are looking to not

spending more on tattoos may go for a

single colored one or one that does not have

much details. How much do things cost

(through the 20th century).

YOU STILL WANT DESIGN

With design, the tattoo can either be simple

hence cheap costing around $50 to $100 or

it can be complex meaning more expensive

because the more complex a tattoo is the

more time an artisan will take to perfect

the tattoo. Also designing one’s own original

creation will take time as the artist will be

more precise and detail compared to just

tweaking a design from a flash design they

already have. The design plays a big factor

in tattoo prices.

YOU REQUEST FOR IT TO BE LARGE?

The larger the tattoo the higher the cost of

getting it and the smaller the tattoo the

cheaper it is. A larger tattoo is more

detailed hence requires a lot of work thus

being expensive. The size plays a HUGE

factor in tattoo parlor

The location of the parlor

The geographical location of the parlor also

determines how much a tattoo would cost.

Tattoo parlors in big flourishing cities will

cost more than those in small cities. The

price will be much higher if the parlor is

located in a vocational spot. An example is,

getting a tattoo in California may cost up to

$300 compared to getting one in Arkansas

which may be $150.

The cost is not the only

factor, also consider the

quality

Getting a good and quality tattoo will

depend on where one goes to get his or her

tattoo especially if you’re wondering how to

get your first tattoo . One may opt to go to

an unknown parlor just because he or she

heard its more cheaper. Before doing that

one should consider whether the health risks

associated are more expensive than going to

an established tattoo parlor.

That’s It!

CONGRATS.

×What are the options for

tattoo removal?

Using cream

You don’t have to look very far to find

tattoo removal cream. With so many

different options of tattoo creams you want

to make sure that you research the ones you

choose to buy carefully. This is a classic case

of you get what you pay for. The cheaper

creams do not work as well as the more

expensive ones. Even with most expensive

tattoo removal cream you are looking at

nothing compared to the cost of laser tattoo

removal. If you don’t have money for laser

surgery, this seems to be your best bet. It

also seems to be one of the cheapest

options.

Using intense pulse light theraphy

IPL is done in spas more than in the

dermatologist office. It works a lot like

laser therapy but is less painful and many

people say more effective. It is more

expensive per setting costing upwards of

$10 per pulse. The good news is fewer

treatments are usually needed, and you

can usually expect results in 10 to 12

months. There are a lot of tattoo removal

experts that do not recommend intense

pulsed light therapy. IPL is more effective

on larger tats and is not recommended for

small tattoos.

Dermabrasion

Dermabrasion has been used to get rid of

tattoos for decades. The process basically

just sands down your skin. I don’t know

about you but that seems pretty painful to

me. It reminds me of the Indian rug burn

in grade school that would never stop.

Basically it takes off the skin layers that

have been tattooed. After the process, the

new skin grows back and voila no tattoo. In

place of the tattoo you very likely will have

extensive scarring. Just to be clear this is

completely different than the popular

microdermabrasion. The cost for this

procedure rivals that of tattoo removal by

laser. In other words, it is not cheap.

Cryotherapy

Basically Cryotherapy is simply burning off

the tattooed skin just like you would burn

off a wart or lesion. This is not a pain-free

option. While this works on smaller tattoos,

you certainly would not want to use it on a

full back piece. The cost comparison for this

type of tattoo removal is like laser, IPL,

and dermabrasion. You’re definitely going

to have to bust the piggy bank to get the

money for this one. Cost wise you are

looking at approximately $80-$100 per

square inch of skin. One of the downsides to

this type of tattoo removal is that finding

someone to do this will not be easy.

Saline

With saline tattoo removal a tattoo artist

will fade the tattoo by tattooing saline

solution on the area of the tattoo. Saline

removal works the best on old tattoos. And

many people say that it is not the most

reliable method for tattoos to be removed.

It is worth a try for light-colored tattoos

and tats that have started to fade. Not a

lot of tattoo artists do this type of removal,

so it may be hard to find an artist. The cost

for this type tattoo removal will be

approximately the same as the cost of the

original tattoo.

Excision

Excision is essentially the cutting away of

the tattoo and sewing the skin up around it.

Obviously this is a surgical option. It is less

expensive than the laser removal, and it

does remove the tattoo completely. The only

problem is you are left with scarring in that

location. This type of tattoo removal can

take several months to complete depending

upon the size of your tattoo. For some

reason the thought of cutting away my skin

and sewing it back together makes this an

option that I would never choose. It should

probably be mentioned that this is the most

common treatment chosen when laser

treatments fail. For some reason this option

brings to mind some redneck using his

hunting knife to scrape “Betty Sue” off of

his forearm.

Homemade Tattoo Removal

You can go online and find ways to remove

your tattoo at home. By the way I still have

Bubba in my head for this method.

Basically you take water, sea salt, hydrogen

peroxide, and liquid vitamin E and you go

through a series of steps to remove the

tattoo at home. You will also need to soft

cloth, medical gauze, and medical tape. By

choosing this form of tattoo removal, you

force yourself to bleed at the site of the

tattoo as a part of the process. I don’t

know about you but for me making myself

bleed is not an option. However, this is the

cheapest option.

The sad truth is this. There are no proven

100% ways to remove all existence of a

tattoo. You are left with scarring, faded

skin, and often odd lines were some of the

tattoo is gone and in other places it

remains. This is why it is so important

before you sit down in a chair for the first

time to make sure that a tattoo location

and design is exactly what you want.
