Not to hijack or anything but I’ve been thinking about getting a tattoo for a while and I finally decided on something. It’s pretty simple and no color. I want this but just the outline none of the coloring inside it. Probably about 5" tall. Got any recommendations on where to go? And what kind of hit would my wallet take for something basic like this? (rough guesstimates are ok)

Go see my buddy Travis at Allstar in Scotia. He’s very good and very reasonably priced. I’m not going to tell you that it will be inexpensive because when getting a tattoo, price should be the LAST thing you should be worried about. That’s on you forever!

Haha yeah definitely not going to go with the lowest bidder, I was just really curious what a rough estimate of it setting me back would be for quality work since I’ve never had a tattoo or been with anyone getting any work done.
