Pricing Info

Please note starting in September I will be making some changes to the set up of my rates! I will now be charging a general rate of sliding scale $130-170/hr with a $225 minimum. I will also have a reparations offering of $90-130/hour sliding scale for queer, trans, and/or low income Black and Indigenous people with a $175 minimum. I’ve been tattooing over 6.5 years now and have raised my rates maybe $20 in the last 5 so sorry babies it’s time!! On a more serious note, it has been a struggle to figure out how to balance taking care of myself/not destroying my body and also keeping my work accessible so this is my latest attempt at striking that balance ~ thanks for bearing with me!!

For custom pieces, I also charge a design fee which accounts for drawing time and edits.

Here’s that breakdown ~

  • $50 small designs

  • $75 standard designs

  • $100-150 large-scale designs

  • $200 half sleeve

The amount of time a tattoo takes depends on a variety of factors including size, complexity of design, placement, whether client needs to take breaks, etc. The majority of my tattoos take around 2 hours, with 1.5-2.5 being a pretty typical range. The pieces contained within rectangular frames tend to be a little more involved and average closer to 2-3 hours, occasionally 3.5 if it’s got a lot of heavy fill/solid lines/generally has got a lot going on. Larger tattoos will be broken up into multiple sessions, so you will never be paying for more than 3 hours of tattooing at a time. If we’re getting really close to finishing and it’s not worth setting up a second session, maybe 3.5.

I am willing to offer a reduced rate and work with your budget for large scale projects such as half sleeves! Often these projects will get broken up into multiple sessions over the course of several months, which is another way to spread out payment and make them a little more manageable to finance. I love having the opportunity to work bigger and design something that really flows with your body - as well as get to build a relationship with a client over multiple sessions :’)

A note about budgeting: please take your time to make a thoughtful n accurate estimate of your overall budget when filling out your booking form as this will directly impact what will be feasible for me to design for you! If I see that you’ve requested something large and complex but you’ve hurriedly marked down $100 as your budget when you’re actually able to pay more, it’s unlikely I will accept your request even if your project is something I’m interest in doing.
