How do I find the best tattoo artist?

Finding the right tattoo artist for you involves research and patience, Start by determining the style of tattoo you want because artists often specialize in specific styles. If you’re wanting some inspiration, you can check out Instagram portfolios, Google, or Pinterest.

Recommendations from people you find with a tattoo that stands out and speaks to you is a great pathway to finding an artist with a style that you like. Read reviews and pay attention to what an artist’s past clients have to say about their artwork and professionalism. Visit tattoo studios to get a feel for the environment and consult with artists to discuss your vision; gauge their enthusiasm and ability to actively listen to your ideas.

Ensure they practice good hygiene and have a comfortable, warming studio, reflecting the luxury experience you are seeking. Always prioritize quality over convenience or cost.

How expensive are most tattoos?

The cost of tattoos vary widely depending on several factors, including the artist’s experience, the size and complexity of the design as well as where you plan on adding this decoration to your body. We have a shop minimum of $100 while larger and more intricate pieces can turn into an investment of thousands of dollars.

It is essential to discuss pricing with your artist ahead of time to understand the full cost of your desired tattoo. We also encourage you to consider your whole body as a canvas. We aren’t suggesting you jump into a full body suit right away (though that would be pretty cool, wouldn’t it?) rather we encourage you to consider how this tattoo will flow with your entire body. Remember, ideally this tattoo will be the last one you get on this part of your body, ten years from now you will be happy you focused on quality of work that stands the test of time.

Our artists here at Oracle Studios put careful planning into the designs we provide, taking into consideration your present desires as well as what the tattoo will evolve into as you grow and age.

What is the appropriate amount to tip at a tattoo Studio?

We acknowledge a growing sense of “tip exhaustion” from the modern consumer and as consumers ourselves. All of our artists set their own prices, already taking factors into consideration like their experience, taxes, overhead, time spent on thoughtful design and providing high quality products throughout your procedure. That being said, we never expect a tip from you, nor do we think there is an indentifiable acceptable tip or tip percentage. We humbly accept any form of gratuity you feel inpsired to leave with absolutely no expectations.

Our level of service is not determined by an anticipated tip from you, we respect that this artwork is permanent, you’ve given us a tremendous amount of trust and your body art is a reflection of us as artists and practitioners. Some of our most favorite tips have been thoughtful homemade gifts, like Sarah’s sweet and spicy pickles or Liza’s hand picked crystals. We appreciate you and the honor of having a memorable experience with you is gift enough.

 How do I find the best tattoo studio?

Making this kind of permanent investment leads one to wonder if they’re going to the best tattoo studio in the area, and although that answer is a very subjective one, there’s a few things you can keep an eye out for. Is your artist responsive and timely? Do they show up sober and on time for your appointment? Do you feel that the artist is actively listening to your ideas and explaining themselves in a respectful and understanding manner? How clean is the shop bathroom? Ultimately your comfort is going to determine what shop is best for you, we’d like to think our shop is the best in town, and even if you don’t agree, we can typically lend a hand in referring you to a shop that might best suit your needs.
