How much would a tattoo on the back of my shoulder cost?
I plan on it being as small as possible. The tattoo itself is going to consist of a few words. Its either going to be my favorite quote, my favorite lyric, or something in latin. I’m just wondering if someone could give me a general cost of a colorless, small, tattoo so I know how much I have to save up.

it isn’t generally by location, but a small tattoo could cost anywhere from $50-$150.
It varies from shop to shop. The best way for you to know is to get a quote from the reputable shop in your area you are planning on using.
I got my nephew’s name across my shoulder blades with color and it only cost me $60. It was $10 per letter. I hope that helps some.
Colorless saves you money. and it’s size saves you money. If it’s anything like where I go, you’ll only have to pay about 50-100$. Remember though, since you want it as small as you can get it and it’s just going to be black, the color and letters will move and fade and by the end of it your tattoo might not be making much sense anymore. Plus, even though you want it really small, every tattoo shop has a minimum charge due to the fact that openning the needle for your tattoo will run the shop itself about 50 bucks. Just pick a smart shop, and ask them what their minimum charge is.
That sounds to me that it’ll be around 100 bucks though. Good Luck!
