Those with Tattoos..

Hey, not sure where to put this so I figured this would be a good enough place to post. lol

I'm getting tattooed by the apprentice at the shop I usually go to on Thursday. He's doing 20$ tattoos. Don't worry I've seen his work and he is awesome! : )

Question is, how much should I tip him? I don't know the etiquette for tipping an apprentice.. Thanks in advance for your input!

Re: Those with Tattoos..

  • Tip him on the quality of the work not on the price of the tattoo. He's trying to build his portfolio and log hours so tip him what you thing he deserves (ie if you think you got the equivalent of a 200 piece of work, tip him accordingly). Who know when you may see him again :)

  • as PP said.. tip based on his work..

  • Agreed - quality of work. Plus, if you may want to go back to him some day or someone else that he knows.

    Im sorry, but this is a HUGE red flag for me. How long has he been apprenticing? How detailed is the piece you're getting? I'm worried for you. Can you PIP some of his other stuff? I'd really hate for you to get a tattoo you won't be happy with so you could be a learning tool for someone, because it was cheap.

  • Yeah I just can't get past the 20$ tattoo from a apprentice part lol Sorry.
  • It's not up online, but I saw the tattoos he's done so far and they are awesome. so don't worry. I wouldn't do it if I was going to get *** work. So far all of his are freaking awesome!
