It's why I haven't gotten my tattoo touched up. I was quoted for $500+ for my tattoo touch up and a 25% tip on top of that, just can't afford it.

Edit for Clarification: Apologies on the confusion, my mistake for using the word touch up. My tattoo is 20+ years old, and was looking for quotes to get it redone (touch up), but not a coverup.

They told you your tip had to be 25%? I’ve seen a place before establish the tip percentage for themselves

At that point calling it a tip is disingenuous. It’s a service fee.

and if 25% is service fee for tattooing, what is the 500+ then, material and rent only if yes, the the price should be for work, too they are not calculating it correctly
