Japanese Tattoo Prices. A lot of people asking how much time a full sleeve could take, so I decided to answer this question here.
Full Sleeve can take 20-30 hours or 5 to 8 sessions. It depends on many many things, like, actual design, size of your arm, healing process, skin condition/sensitivity and pain tolerance. So as you can imagine predict all these factors just impossible. When I have your arm sizes and general concept of the design I can only approximately estimate.
Right now my hourly rate is $350 for projects on clean skin (Extra Large projects like BodySuit are eligible for discounts, just ask! ), cover ups and incorporation with old tattoo projects might have different price and definitely need to be discussed, but in most cases Id recommend to laser it off!
Usually I work 4-5 hours session, I don’t do longer sessions as its very stressful for your body and can decrease chances for a good healing. Break between the sessions can be 2-3 weeks, its an average comfortable time – good enough to heal properly.
So all together, a full sleeve takes few months to finish. Sometimes in exceptional cases people would like to get a sleeve in several days. Its possible, but will definitely be really hard for both of us and will effect healing process. So I wouldn’t recommend it. Remember it’s a process we all have to enjoy!
