People tip tattoo artists?I mean I tip things outside of restaurants, etc when I know the person is on hourly and does a good job, but largely tattoo artists work at their own rate and take all if not a % of the cost, they just pay a monthly chair cost, etc. so why on earth would I tip for that outside of so thrilled with the work I felt compelled to naturally.
I’ve had tattoo artists state they expect a tip up front.
I’ve had others say don’t worry about it.
It all depends I guess. But I do agree, considering they set their own fees why not just be upfront about all that? Maybe for tax purposes? But I highly doubt most tattoo artists are experts at tax law.
they werent saying they expected the tip before doing the job they were saying they stated that they expect to be tipped and let them know before hand.

Okay...
