Tbf I hate tipping culture but I will say out of anyone I’ve tipped in my life, I’ve never had an issue tipping my tattoo artist. Dude is putting a lot of time and effort into something that’s going to be on my body for the rest of my life. I happily tipped my artist like 35$ to 50$ for a 300$ tattoo
Most of them are Independent artist that rent the space and give a percentage of their tattoo money to the landlord so they make less than they charge...
If they charge more, the percentage they give will increase also
Tip goes in their pocket
