not only do they only get a % of what they charge, they have to pay for their own supplies..ink, needles, paper towels, stensils, etc, etc, ....SO TIP THEM!!

^^^ werd, I'm on my 3rd one now, just got it the other day, got plenty more in the works, and still trying to finish one. T all my guys that have'em, me and a friend of mine got into an arguement on whether or not to tip the artist, I myself have a certain guy I go to and only him, I usually tip about 20 on top of what he charges, my buddy says he doesn't tip at all, what do you do?you should always tip.
they only make a % of what you pay them... and the shop makes the rest.
so like a new tattoo guy makes like 35% a established one might make 45% ...
so tiping is a good thing.
bs 80%..shops here only get 50%..i know, i apprenticed at one..
Yes. Tipping your tat artist is nice. Otherwise you might end up with some fucked up shit!

Check it out, just a day old! Still a work in progress. I need to figure out what color i want the car to be.
To testify on how addicting tattoos are, this is my seventh one since June! 7 IN 8 MONTHS!! I am starting to piece together my sleeve on my right arm.
I just got two on my elbows, they hurt a little bit, the worst was right in the center of the elbow
My next tattos are my writs, then elbows, back of the neck, and insides of my arms. in that order too =)
