Rates: FLASH
NEW MINIMUM: Tattoos less than 1 hour is flat rate $200. Please note that the time to tattoo the design depends on multiple conditions, including color vs black and gray, placement, size and more.
Most tattoos completed less than 1 hour are 1" or less, located on arm or leg, and black ink only. When completing this form, I will do my best I advise which designs will work for your budget.

- You can schedule an appointment to get more than one tattoo! List an accurate budget so I know how much time to set aside for the appointment.
- I will do my best to provide you a quote referencing the amount of time we need to complete your project, but I ask you to be flexible since we will not know the final price until your tattoo is complete.
FLASH: PRE-DRAWN DESIGNS
My flash designs are now repeatable! Lots of subject matter, size ranges, and everything is available in color and black and white, your choice. Cute squishy animals and tiny objects look great as solo "stitckers" or as gap fillers in bigger collections. This time, most of my flash is sized 1-3" and generally round or oval-shaped. The minimum size is 1".
What is minimum size?
- This is the smallest possible size the design can be tattooed. This ensures that the design will be legible after years of healing and takes into consideration fading and softening of lines and details.
- The smallest designs are 1" (2.5cm)
- Not all designs can be scaled to 1".
MINIMUM SIZE AND BUDGET/TIME
- 1" ........ These are the simplest designs and can take 30-45 minutes to complete. ($200-$300)
- 1~2" .... approx 1-1.5 hours ($300-450)
- 2~3" .... approx 2-2.5 hours ($600-$750)
- Complex designs take 3.5-4 hours ($1050-$1200)
- You can book a full day (4 hours, $1200) if you want multiple tattoos. The amount due is prorated if the session is less than 4 hours.
