There are a lot a client needs to match with an artist, to create a great experience and end up with a piece they will be happy with for the rest of their lives. There are a lot of questions that need to be asked before you plunk down that deposit…

First…why the deposit? Deposits are needed to hold tattoo appointments and get the artist to start on the design process. Deposits are commonly used to cover the time artists spend on the design if the client chooses not to get tattooed. Therefore it is important to make sure you have chosen the right artist for the job so problems do not occur down the line. Deposits typically come off the final price of the tattoo and are kept on file until the piece is completed, however they can be forfeited if you do not show up for a scheduled appointment time to cover the artists lost time.

Do you like the entire portfolio of the artist you are researching? Most artists have a specific style to their tattoos and if most of the artists portfolio pictures do not interest you, you need to keep researching other artists.

How much of the design process are you willing to leave up to the artist? Artists will differ in the amount of artistic freedom they request from clients. Some artists will let you design a basic idea and then clean it up for you so it looks good as a tattoo. Other artists who specialize in a certain style will request partial or full artistic freedom on the design, to make it as cutting edge as possible. Clients should book with an artist who has a level artistic input they are comfortable with. While sometimes scary, some of the best tattoo work being done today is by giving the artist complete freedom in the design process of your tattoo. This method is only for the client who has no preconceived expectations on how the overall design will look as most artists at this level will design something you least expect.

Does your personality match the artists you are interested in getting work done by? Most artists will do a consultation with the client to see what the design is and whether it fits into their style or not. This is a great time to gauge whether the artist is a good fit for you for both style and personality.

Should I price shop? Things never work out very well when you price shop a tattoo. Artists usually charge an hourly rate which can vary with experience and speed. The cheaper per hour an artist is usually an indication of their experience, which means your piece will take longer and it will typically end up being the same cost as a more experienced artist after all.

Another factor in the hourly price of a tattoo is how much time the artist will invest in the preparation of the artwork. Larger tattoos can take several hours or longer to design which will make your design even better and is partly covered in the hourly rate.

Is it safe to get tattooed at the festival? Yes! All artists are under strict guidelines at The Tattoo & Arts Festival. The festival has rules in place over and above health guidelines. Each booth is inspected right before opening by Alberta Health Services to ensure guidelines are being met. The festival also supplies each artist with all medical supplies to make sure only the best products are used.
