Understanding Tattoo Studio Starting Prices | Vadelma Tattoo Amsterdam
Understanding Tattoo Studio Starting Prices
If you’ve ever looked at tattoo studio websites, you might have noticed something like:
• “Starting at €80”
• “Minimum price €100”
For many people, this can be confusing. Does it mean you can get a proper tattoo at that price? Or is it just a very small dot? The truth is: starting prices can mean different things at different studios.
Why Starting Prices Differ
Some studios use a low starting price for:
• promotion’s tiny flash tattoos
• single dots or mini symbols
• walk-in sessions with no design preparation for very small tattoos
In these cases, the starting price often reflects a specific service — usually just a quick tattoo. Other studios, like Vadelma Tattoo in Amsterdam, set a starting price that reflects:
• private studio experience
• personal communication via email or messages
• custom design planning for your tattoo
• time and care spent during the session
This means that even the starting price at Vadelma Tattoo (€149 for minimalistic text/symbols, €220–280 for small tulip designs as for 2026, due to inflation it might not be relevant soon … ) represents a full tattoo experience, not just the cost of ink or materials.
What’s Included in Our Pricing

How This Differs From “Cheap Starting Prices”
Some studios advertise a very low starting price for walk-ins or tiny tattoos. This can be fine if you want a quick, simple tattoo — but it usually doesn’t include design communication, private studio environment, or personalized guidance. At Vadelma Tattoo, we aim for full transparency: our starting price is realistic, and clients know exactly what they are getting — a high-quality, thoughtfully crafted tattoo in a private studio, with attention to every detail.
Why Transparency Matters
By being upfront about our prices and what they include, clients can make informed decisions without surprises. You know that:
• the starting price is not a gimmick
• every tattoo is treated as a custom piece of art
• the price reflects your experience and long-term results
How to Get an Accurate Quote
The best way to estimate your tattoo price is to share a few details:
• your tattoo idea
• approximate size
• placement on the body
• reference images if available
This allows the artist to provide a realistic quote and ensure your tattoo fits your vision.
