How much did you pay?

For your tattoos? Where are the best places to get them? Idk if anyone is from OK or MO but that's where I am. I have gotten a really nice one in OK from a friend's friend (he was legit). I need more!!! So give me your advice/ideas please!

I paid 120 for my Claddagh on my lower back ( about 4" x 2" full color) and 75 for my DD foot prints on the back of my calf. (About 5" tall x 2.5" wide- its all shading with her name and birthday in script)

I usually go based on referral of locals, but look for places that are certified through the govt, that way you know they are clean and inspected regularly. Also, check their website, most artists have porfolios online you can look at their work, make sure there style fits your designs etc...

Thank you for the advice. I probably need to decide what I want before I try to find an artist though :-/

[cowboysgirl2810]

Yeah, that will help, especially because some do diff types better. Like some artists do great portraiture, others excel at free hand, some are amazing with b&w and shading. Its all about what you want and how you want it done, and matching your desires to their skills.

Very true. I'm having a hard time picking my next one as I have several in mind.
