the cost of a tattoo depends on a lot. what artist you have do it, how much detail there is, if you want color, how popular of an artist/shop you go to, how long it will take to do, and so on. i know a lot of shops charge by hour (each artist has their own starting rate). so it just depends on where you go. make sure you check out the artist's work and make sure they're good. you don't want something that's going to be permanant on your body that looks like crap. check around a few shops and find an artist you're comfortable with and go from there. it's not a good idea to go somewhere just because it's got a cheaper price.....sometimes you get what you pay for. so look around and if/when you get something, let's see it!
