12 Tips to Tattoo Shop Etiquette | Amazing Tattoos

You never want to be “that guy” in the tattoo shop who is haggling for a lower price, criticizing the tattooist’s design, and basically telling everyone in the shop how to do their jobs.  It’s rude to the artists, managers, piercers and other clients. This kind of behavior can cause a huge distraction and kills the vibe of the shop.  When you get a tattoo, you don’t want to be a dick about it, you want to be the best possible client.  Everyone gets the tattoo they deserve, so here are our twelve tips to tattoo shop etiquette.

#1 Tip your artist

Tipping is not expected, but it is appreciated. It shows that you love the tattoo and appreciate all of the hard work the artist put in to make it.  Tips should probably be somewhere between 10-20% if they are monetary, but sometimes cool gifts that you know your artist would be into are just as acceptable!
