So I'm gonna go ahead and get this out of the way. Unless you are a local, a regular, or have a unique idea don't expect the red carpet treatment. They have the tendency to be....well, pricz.
With that said if you come in with a passion piece, like I did, that I had been working on for years, they will treat you and your tattoo with full respect. My artist was Ricky, and I went in twice for consultations before I ever got my work done. He made some great contributions and made the appropriate interpretations where it was needed. The piece is a compass rose that takes up most of my forearm about 6" x 5" with 2 colors and some mild shading. His quote of $250 I felt was beyond reasonable.
My ex also came here with a friend to get a butterfly and her friend wanted a star. To which, her friend was told: "we don't do stars...unless you're a star. No stars, and no brass knuckles unless you're a fighter."
To some extent you want to say, hey wait a minute I'm the customer here. But in this instance I just appreciate the integrity.
These people are artists, and probably sick and tired of the typical Vegas douchebagery.
If you want a celebrity sighting, an $8 cocktail while you wait, or a perky receptionist, then head to one of the spots on the strip, and enjoy paying 30-50% more for the same piece. But if you want something original that isn't right out of a book or a cliche then head to Pricz.
