How much does it cost to get a tattoo all over your back?

Generally speaking, the tattoo market in Nanjing is not particularly hot, and there are no famous masters here. On the contrary, some new tattoo artists are very successful, so the price is moderate. It's not that some tattoo artists in Beijing and Shanghai charge three or five thousand yuan an hour, and they recite all seven or eight thousand. However, the fact that there is no high price for tattoos in Nanjing does not mean that the level of tattoo technology is not as good as that in Shanghai. There was a market for art before it had a price. Each tattoo artist has his own expertise and characteristics. Maybe those tattoo artists in Beijing and Shanghai who charge 2000 hours will reduce their prices in Nanjing and Suzhou, which is related to the income and consumption level of different cities. How much is the tattoo in Nanjing? Why are tattoos so expensive now, and how to save money to get a good tattoo?

One: the charging method for tattoos in Nanjing.

1, calculated according to the area size of the pattern style.

In the past, the tattoo industry in Nanjing was mostly calculated by area, and the basic price per square centimeter was around 10-20 yuan. For example, a black and gray pattern with a length of 10cm and a width of 5 cm, the total price is about 500-800 yuan. However, this method is difficult to adapt with the development of the industry and the changes of public preferences, because the tattoo crowd is not large and the patterns made are not very complicated. Most of them are traditional styles in China, such as Shoulder-Shoulder Dragon, Tiger, Carp and Wolf Head. Tattooists can do the same for these elements, so there is no difference in craftsmanship. Everyone can find a tattoo shop according to the size of the area, and the quotation is similar. Now there are more and more tattoo styles. Guests not only need unique and novel patterns, but also need tattoo artists to create unique designs according to their own ideas and wishes. This is equivalent to giving different tattooists different papers. Some tattoo artists can finish the questions quickly and well, while others are difficult to pass. This level of technical difference needs to be reflected intuitively through price charging, otherwise the industry will lack passion and motivation. Therefore, many tattoo artists in Nanjing will directly communicate and discuss the price according to the requirements of the guests and the style, size and complexity of the patterns. Here is a brief introduction to the general charging standards of tattoo shops in Nanjing:

The outer half of the traditional style arm, such as carp or lotus, elephant god and so on. The average price in this area is about 1500-2000, the traditional style arm is about 3000-5000, and the price of half-wrapped arm is similar to that of full-wrapped arm. So the price of a traditional style flower arm is about 6000- 1 10,000.

The price of European and American style bag arm is 4000-6000, and the price of European and American flower arm is about 8000- 1.5 million. Because this style is more difficult, what Nanjing can do better is European and American realism, especially there are not many tattoo artists who are realistic portraits, so the price is higher.

The price of traditional half-nail tattoos is around 4000-6000.

The traditional full-back tattoo costs 8,000-1.2 million, while the European and American full-back tattoo costs around1.2 million. The price of flower legs is similar.

The price of the thorn and totem palm is 1000- 1500.

Small and fresh, geometric patterns of lines, the starting price of a paragraph of English and the like is 300-500, depending on the pricing of different stores.

The pricing listed here is only the charges of most tattoo shops in Nanjing at present. Of course, some tattoo artists decide their own pricing. Whether it is high or low, everyone has a measure in mind. Some people appreciate the aesthetic quality and design style of the tattoo artist, but no matter how expensive the tattoo is, it can't be measured by value, and some guests are worried that the tattoo artist is not skilled and afraid of being cheated. So I was suspicious everywhere, and then I went to the post bar in Zhihu to ask netizens how much this tattoo cost. See if it's worth it. Such people are the most speechless. If you don't believe in your tattoo, you will regret it for life. Back to the issue of charging by area and style, the complexity of the pattern elements made by everyone is different, the tattoo artist chosen is different, and everyone's skin color is different, so the price gap is sometimes quite large. For example, your figure is very tall and your arms are twice as thick as normal people. Especially for a friend who is doing fitness, the area of that arm can be twice that of a normal person, which is equivalent to making two flower arms, so the price is definitely high. Some people have bad skin, black or have it.

What is said here is that the cover decoration of tattoos is about 20% higher than that of normal tattoos, such as caesarean section cover, burn scar cover, birthmark cover, vitiligo cover, as well as the repair and coloring of old tattoos and the cover of failed tattoos. Because the difficulty has increased a lot, tattoo artists need to spend more time and energy thinking about creation. The first tattoo, we must carefully choose, think twice before you do. There is so much skin, only one perfect opportunity to use it. We should cherish it more, or we will not only spend more money, but also fail to do it well.

2. Charge by the hour.

It is inevitable that many people don't know much about their own design style. Some tattoo artists find it difficult, while guests find it very simple and difficult to communicate with one channel. There is a lot of consumption without fear, and it is easy to charge people according to the design area. Some tattoo shops are desperate to pay high prices when they see guests with luxury car keys. Guests with low spending power will arrange novice tattoo artists to do it. In particular, the tattoo industry is on the rise in China, and the quality and level of employees are not high. There were many bad habits in the early stage of the industry, and time-based charging came into being. This charging method is not the first time for China people to use it. Many years ago, the international tattoo industry has been charging by time. Some tattoo masters in Europe and America are real artists, and some charge by the day, ranging from thousands to tens of thousands of yuan a day. It is reported that the tattoo on Shawn Yue's arm was arranged by a master about six months ago.

Back to charging by the hour, it must be difficult for a small white guest to understand and accept this charging method for the first time. How to calculate the hourly charge? How do I know that the tattoo artist will spend hours doing this tattoo? This is the problem. Why didn't you know it would take hours for you to get a tattoo? Charge by the hour is to promote people to know more about the tattoo you want to do. Only when choosing a tattoo artist can you trust him by knowing the approximate cost of his tattoo style. Before tattooing, you need to know that your design will take several hours to complete, and estimate the overall cost by the hour. As long as you know your own pattern and the technical level of the tattoo artist you choose, you won't worry that the tattoo artist will deliberately delay and deceive you.

Hope to adopt. Thank you.
