August 9, 2010 12:15 am at 12:15 am #82946. Trying to get a tattoo done on my birthday, and I priced a couple places in town. Itâs a decent size tattoo from my shoulder to my elbow, and itâs going to be 2 colors with some shading. I got prices from $300 to $1200. Is that the normal around here, I donât know much about tats, I got one paid a $120 for it one color, and it took about 45 mins. I want to get it done for around $300 but I donât want to go some place, thats going to make it look like a amature did it to.
