How much would you expect to pay for this tattoo?

[Tapoopoo]

Im not asking if you like tattoos. If you dont, may I strongly suggest you never get one and move along to another thread.

I know its not to everyone's taste and the good old cliche "bold will hold" etc etc but how much would you expect to pay for something like this?

I'm getting my children's birth flowers (yes another cliche, the thread is full of them) and have been quoted a price. Im happy to pay it because I like the artist's work but a few people have said it's expensive so out of curiosity, how much would you expect to pay for something like this?

Its £1 coin for scale.

ETA - It's my first tattoo so have nothing to compare it to. One of the people who commented has poorly done tattoos so I wouldnt listen to them and the other has well done tattoos but in a different style.

He does lovely work. I LOVE the metallic strawberry.

You’re looking at 2 hours maximum!
so around £150/£200!!
no way should anyone pay £350 for something so small!!

His metallic strawberry is amazing! Id love to know the story behind it.

Isn't that fabulous!

I wonder how long you'll have to wait op, but he's amazing

Nope, just my siblings both follow various artists so I get their posts popping up on my FB feed! I just remember him cos his style is very similar to my sister's (my brother is more dark stuff and skulls haha)

Haaaa just read through more of the thread.

@Sickandtiredoflife would you just give it up! I assume you never buy clothes for yourself, get a haircut etc because it's all gone on your kids yeah?

It’s not just about the size. It’s about the quality of the work. He’s very good and there’s absolutely no way it would be that cheap.

OP, this might have been said above, so apologies if I’m repeating it, but remember that a lot of the artists in high demand will have a day rate, rather than an hourly rate.

Gosh that's stunning. Mine is a similar size. A completely different style as mine is a copy of a watercolour image and nowhere near as much fine detail as your one. Mine was £350.

Is this a wind up? Seriously??

Yes a lot does have a day rate, they also have a hourly rate for some tattoos and most will give you a set price for tattoos too!
where I go this would only be done as a set price or hourly rate
