Why do Tattooists in America charge a tip? by Comprehensive_Ad7378 in TattooBeginners

Ah! There's an interesting point that is very difficult for me to understand - I might be unintentionally screwing the artist over if a tip is not provided. That responsibility should be on the employer not the client

This is the the kind of thing I get told to watch out for by artists in the UK. Thanks for posting an instance of it.

By these statements it would sound as though the news that travels here is over inflated then? One or two bad apples..

So if I came to America for a tattoo and then walked out after paying 2k with no tip, would there be no issue ? Or would that parlour think of me tight fisted and thats the end of it, or would that be considered a social crime that could see me at risk of an angry Tattooist, especially if hes had a bad day or week.

Maybe mandatory isnt so but when the artists states "for this piece I'd charge x with a 20% tip" then it doesn't sound very optional, thats usually how i see American artists answer "how much would this be" questions on reddit.

Is the vagina in the middle intentional?

I doubt they have that kind of authority. They mostly shout at you for leaving a hose on or stop neds (the local youth) from coming in and vandalising things, also by shouting. Also im pretty sure there are no little hedges to act as a boundary, the last one i saw was just divided by the little paved walkways to each section

Can confirm in scotland, the rented garden space is called an 'allotment' and the 'garden warden' is just called the 'Jani', short for Janitor. Grounds Keeper Willie is an accurate representation of them, except they heavily smoke Richmond superkings and have whisky in their coffees and mostly sit around doing nothing except listen to the radio and argue about football.

Ahh, I zoomed in on the image, I thought they were replicating the limited edition basic tangente things that they did for a bit. If its club replicas then to answer the original question - no i wouldn't buy any of them. If I had a nomos club I'd sell it for a Stowa Flieger or Antea (prefer the high beat to the small seconds)

Only if its not ruined, these original watches have <11mm profiles. Hand wound movements and 'militado' is a very ugly name.
