 |

Ok guys. So I got a tattoo that wraps around my entire right wrist. It took about 2 and a half to 3 hours when it was originally done and cost me $250. I am going to get a touch up from the same guy on Wednesday and he says it's free for touch ups. How much should I tip him on Wednesday based on all this? Any input would be great thanks. The first time he did my work he charged $250 but I gave him $350 so I usually tip pretty hefty, but am low on money now. HELP!

There's no need to tip for a touch up, and especially after tipping that generously on the initial work.

Are you saying you paid $350 for the starry night band on your wrist? If thats the case, you've paid enough. Not a bad tattoo, but an hour MAX, especially if the nautical star was aleady there.... Theres not much ink there...

Haha thanks guys. It looked so much better the first time it was done it went through a pretty rough healing process. The reason it took so long and it's actually hard to see in the picture is there are three different purple colors in the band and he redid my star to make it look a bit better. But thanks for the input you guys. Hopefully it will come out looking more beautiful.
