tip,are you guys kiddin me?more then half the money your giving the artist is goin in his pocket,it aint like a resturant where the server doesnt get anything thats on the bill only the tip,you guys crack me up sometimes,and i got 4 tats so it aint like im talkin out of my ass.your paying for the service,and the artist is payin the owner rent,ink is cheap as all hell,thats why an artist can drasticaly change the price if he feels like it.

and cmp,whats 100% tha kind mean to YOU,i know you dont care what other people think about it,but wut does tha kind mean?like your a 100% you???
I have well over 100 hours of work on me and one of my closest homies is a licensed tattooist, 20% tip is what they're expecting. I guarentee that if drop the tip, next time you go in and all the rest of future tats will be at a hooked up price.

Also, I've only known a few shops where the artist pulled in more than half the cost of the tat. My homies old shop used to be 60/40 for the artist but once it was bought out, the new owner changed it to 50/50. He spent quite a bit of time searching for a shop that was more than 50/50 and there is not too many out there. (Or around my way anyways)

If you have 4 tats done and you didn't know about dropping a tip, then maybe you don't know as much as you think you do.

I can't disagree with you there, if you're bringing the dude extra business then I guess a tip wouldn't really be necessary. I actually do both for my artist, I'll tip him and bring him in some extra business and I get hooked up really cheap.

Ignore on geo, it's Wattsup, a netbanger that's been banned from the siccness more than 15 times last time I counted.

I didnt realize how hard it was to take a picture of your back until I tried to contribute to this thread haha.

My 1st tattoo, I didnt know how much to give the guy for a tip, so he said "Either give me 180 and a 20 dollar tip, or just give me 200." Haha, made my day easier.
