Message you can send

Based on the size and detail, I'd quote $540 to $660. A $150 deposit holds your date and comes off the total.

Use it on your booking page

On Studio Haven, customs come in as inquiries. Once you have your number, send the quote and a deposit link from the booking thread. Once they pay, the date is held.

Questions artists ask

How do tattoo artists price their work?

Most use an hourly rate for customs and larger pieces, a set price for flash, and a shop minimum so small tattoos still cover setup and cleanup. Some charge drawing time separately for big custom work.

Why send a range instead of one number?

Sessions run long or short depending on skin, placement, and breaks. A range sets expectations and saves an awkward conversation at the end.

How big should the deposit be?

Many artists ask for 20 to 30 percent on customs, or at least enough to cover drawing time. The deposit guide goes through how to pick yours.
