this is something i would like to know myself... i usually just shell out $60 every session i have.. i usually go in for 4 hour sessions all the time.
I have homies that tip after they finish the whole tattoo.. so after doing the math i tip about 25%..
For me it really depends on the artist and if it was a custom piece and all that. I gave 50 bucks on a 270 dollar piece, and I've given 50 bucks on a 100 dollar piece. I even know artists that have gotten gifts as tips such as signed artwork from famous artists. There's no real standard.
