How much does a neo-traditional tattoo cost in the US?
US tattoo studios typically charge between $150 and $250 per hour for neo-traditional work, with specialized artists charging up to $300 per hour. Medium-sized forearm or thigh pieces range from $400 to $900, while full-day sessions or multi-session sleeve work can run from $1,500 to $4,500.
How does neo-traditional differ from traditional American tattoos?
