What determines the price of a tattoo?
The price comes from the time involved and the artist's experience. A fine, small motif on the forearm is done in one short session; a large realism back piece needs several appointments.
These factors have the biggest impact:
- —Size and level of detail
- —Style (fine lines, blackwork or photorealistic black-and-grey each take different effort)
- —Body area (ribs, hands or neck are trickier and take longer)
- —Colour or black-and-grey
- —Whether it is a fresh motif or a cover-up
Fixed price or hourly rate?
We usually price small to medium motifs as a fixed price and large projects by the hour. With a fixed price you know the cost upfront; with an hourly rate you pay for the time actually needed.
Which model fits your motif is something we clarify during the studio consultation — including an honest estimate of how many sessions are realistic.
Is there a minimum price?
Yes. Our minimum price is €100 — even the smallest tattoo costs that much, because preparation, sterile materials, the stencil and aftercare apply regardless of size. This minimum covers the fixed effort per session.
Why don't we quote prices over the phone?
A serious price is best given once we have seen your motif, the desired size and the body area. That's why it's best to discuss your tattoo in person at the studio — so you get a reliable figure instead of a rough guess. If your motif is simple and doesn't need to be discussed in person, we're happy to give a rough estimate on WhatsApp beforehand.
You can drop by any time during opening hours — no appointment needed — at Wagramer Straße 115 to talk everything through and arrange a slot on the spot, or message us on WhatsApp first and we'll answer your initial questions.
