Typically €80–€200 per hour in Ireland. Enter your town above for real prices from providers near you.

A typical tattoo session can last anywhere from one to several hours, depending on the size and detail of the design. Larger or more intricate tattoos may require multiple sessions.

For intricate or specialized designs, it is advisable to seek a qualified tattoo artist who specializes in that style. While general tattoo artists can handle most designs, specialists may offer better results for specific techniques.

Same-day appointments may be available, but they often depend on the artist's schedule and the complexity of the tattoo. It’s best to contact the studio in advance to check availability.
