Hi, does anyone know a tattoo place that does not have a minimum charge in Sheffield? I want a black outline a couple of inches total. I have asked Feline and Thou art but they both have a high minimum charge.

 

What would you call a resonable minimum charge.i would think all tattooists will have a minimum charge of some kind.

the best tattooist is no longer with us

pete wild Rip the best biker/tattooist ever, he was loved,liked and respected by everyone who met him.

sadly killed in a bike crash in 2004, can' believe it's been that long.

good friend and dearly missed but at least i have a few permanent reminders of him on my arms and back.

He tattooed all over the world . best free hand artist ive ever met.

When several hundred people turn up at your funeral, you must have done something right in life.

 

RIP Pal

 

GMES I said exactly the same thing about Pete the other week, but forgot his surname great bloke, put me one on my right shoulder in 88 no transfer just by free hand. Trust me as you'd know it's perfection he was an artist & a gentleman.

 

RIP Pete Wild

Im still mulling over whether to have my first tattoo or not and have recently been offered one done by an apprentice in a studio for free, is this wise? I know everyone says you get what you pay for but if its an apprentice would they be just learning, therefore you take more risks with poor quality or health implications? The owner of the studio usually charges around £20 per hour which i gather is very cheap?

hi as i mentioned in my previous reply, Lucian from noctimania is a friend of mine, he deffinetly wouldn't allow an apprentice to take on s tattoo that was beyond their ability, and I know what your saying about what he charges, I've asked him about this before. he told me he's not in it for the money,

Nearly all decent tattooists will charge a minimum of 1 hour, this is usually due to the costs incurred for setting up and needles etc. All of the kit they use can ony be used once before been disposed of or sterilised regardless of whether its a large piece or small outline.
