Price depends more on the piece than the style name
Two tattoos in the same style can have very different prices. A simple mini tattoo can be very affordable, while a larger, detailed piece in a complex area requires more time and artist assessment.
For small, simple pieces, you can find designs with lower entry values in the gallery cards. For larger pieces, configuring the design gives you a more accurate estimate.

Frequently asked questions about prices
Can I find tattoos with lower entry values?
Yes. Small, simple pieces like symbols, initials or single strokes tend to have lower entry values. The final price depends on complexity and artist assessment. Browse the gallery to see real estimates.
Why does realism tend to be more expensive?
Realism requires advanced technique, precise shading and generally more execution time. Artists specialized in realism invest years of practice, which is reflected in the price.
Does the booking fee count toward the final price?
The booking fee starts the process and covers validation and artist matching. The final tattoo price is confirmed after the artist's assessment and may differ from the estimate.
Can the final price change?
Yes. The platform estimate is based on market averages. The final price depends on the artist's assessment, considering design specifics, skin and positioning.
How do I know the ideal size?
On each design page, you can configure size and body area to see how the estimate changes. Generally, smaller pieces (5–10cm) are ideal for starting with a lower investment.
