Okay!
So I have a bunch of ideas that I’d LOVE to tattoo.
The $1000-$500 ideas are all intended to be quite large and will be done in multiple sessions.
I haven’t drawn any of these yet (none of the images are my own) and I have no idea how long most of these concepts will take, but the prices are set! Even if they take longer than I’m anticipating!
I’d like to do the snake BIG, think ankle to mid thigh or a whole side of your back.
This one in particular will take quite a long time, I’d like to split it into 3 sessions.
The giant mermaid would ideally be a full outer calf/thigh, I’d like to get as much detail as possible into her! I’d like 2-3 sessions to complete her.
Pharaoh’s Horses is an iconic tattoo design that generally needs to be quite big, I’m thinking upper back or front of thigh for this one. This one will also need 2-3 sessions.
The $600 designs will ideally be around 30cm each. They’ll likely need 2 sessions to complete.
I’m imagining the $500 designs around 20-30cm each. These can be done in 2 sessions as well.
The $400 designs are 15-20cm, give or take depending on the particular piece. These ones can be done in 1 or 2 sessions.
The cartoon characters will be $200-$300 each and around 10-15cm. They can be done in a single session 😇
I’d like to do the flowers around 20-30cm as well, I could also sneak in a wee bird or butterfly to these 👀
I don’t particularly enjoy tattooing for an entire day which is why I’d like to split the larger pieces into multiple sessions!
My clients are generally sore and tired by the 4-5hr mark and so am I 😅
I’ve priced each of these designs for legs, arms and backs. Any other placement will take me longer to tattoo and will cost a little extra to cover this time.
I have AfterPay and I’m also happy to set up custom payment plans directly into a dedicated bank account, I’m more than happy to work around you guys!
You’ll only have to pay for each session up-front until the total is paid. I don’t expect the tattoo to be paid in full until it’s finished!
Send me a DM, email or Jotform if you’re interested in any of these designs and we can get the ball rolling! ✨

Just something I whipped up today to give you an idea of my pricing 🥰
(I absolutely did not ‘whip’ this up, it took waaaaaaay too long).
I used to charge by the hour, but realised I felt like I had to rush a little to make sure you guys didn’t feel like you were being ripped off and I felt awful when a tattoo would take me longer than I’d initially quoted for😅
I’ve been charging by the piece for the last few years now and it seems to be working best for me!
This chart isn’t accurate for every single tattoo though! I price up each tattoo depending on the complexity of the design, the size and the placement.
Some parts of the body stretch more and your palm sized tattoo can become hand sized, or sometimes your hand sized tattoo is actually really simple and won’t take me long at all. It also doesn’t account for script tattoos or longer, narrower designs. Your best bet is to send me your idea/size/placement and I’ll give you a quote ☺️
Feel free to send me a Jotform, a DM, a message on Instagram: .noir, the High Priestess Tattoo page or an email and I can let you know how much your next tattoo might cost! 😇

Hello angels!
I’m currently taking bookings for January and February 🙌🏻
As always, I’m open to both flash AND custom!
I’ve been wondering lately if people assume I’m only taking bookings for flash, but I’m always down to do your custom pieces as well, please don’t hesitate to ask me!
I’m also acutely aware of everyone’s need to treat themselves despite the current cost of living, so I’ve decided to start offering payment plans ♥️
You can choose between a custom pre-pay payment plan or AfterPay.
I haven’t set up AfterPay *just* yet, but it’s in the works for the new year!
Please send through a Jotform request if you’re interested in making a booking! I’ll get back to everyone before Christmas 🫶🏻
