Tattoo artist services, permanent makeup and piercing
A small first tattoo or a sleeve over several sessions, a cover-up of old work, permanent brows and lips or an ear piercing — find a tattoo or piercing artist. Describe the idea, style and rough size in an order, and artists will send responses. Or pick one yourself by healed work in portfolios.
Tattoo and piercing artists
How much tattoos, permanent makeup and piercings cost
What affects the price
Size and placement
A large piece or a sleeve takes several sessions, and ribs, hands or the neck are harder to work on than the shoulder or forearm.
Style and technique
Fine linework usually takes less time than realism or color work. In permanent makeup the price depends on the method: powder brows, hair strokes or shaded eyeliner.
Custom design
A design drawn just for you is often charged separately, or the artist takes a deposit for it that later counts toward the session price.
Touch-up after healing
A return visit to touch up the color of a tattoo or permanent makeup may be included in the price or paid for separately.
Piercing jewelry
The first piece of jewelry may be included in the piercing price or bought separately, and titanium, implant-grade steel and gold differ a lot in price.
Prices come from specialists' profiles on Nexperity and update automatically. You agree the final price with the specialist directly.

How to choose a tattoo or piercing artist
- 1
Healed work in your style
Blackwork, realism, linework and color work are different skills. Look for healed tattoos and permanent makeup in the portfolio, not only fresh shots after a session.
- 2
Single-use needles
Needles or cartridges, as well as ink caps, should be single-use and unpacked in front of you, and gloves should be new. Ask how the artist sterilizes the other tools.
- 3
Design and outline first
A tattoo stencil goes onto the skin, and the brow shape or lip line is drawn in pencil: agree on size, placement and color before any pigment goes in.
- 4
Piercing with a needle
Ask whether the artist pierces with a single-use sterile needle rather than a piercing gun, and what material the first piece of jewelry will be.
- 5
Aftercare and touch-ups
Find out how to care for a tattoo, permanent makeup or a piercing while it heals, and when to come back for a touch-up. If you have health concerns, consult a doctor first.
What to put in the order
What you need: a tattoo, permanent makeup or a piercing
For a tattoo — the style, approximate size, whether you want color and where on the body: arm, leg or back
Whether you have a ready design, or the artist should draw it from scratch
Whether it is the first work in this spot, or an old tattoo needs covering or permanent makeup refreshing
For a piercing — ear, nose or another spot, and whether you already have the jewelry
Convenient days for the session, and payment
Questions about Nexperity
How Nexperity works — separately for clients and for specialists
For clients
Nothing. Searching for specialists, sending requests, posting orders and receiving responses are free.
No. You agree the price and the payment method with the specialist and pay them directly. Nexperity does not take payments and is not a party to your deal.
A request goes to one specialist — from their profile. An order is posted for everyone: specialists send you responses, and you choose which one to accept.
How the specialist will do the task, a price — fixed, a range, hourly or “on request” — and, optionally, an estimated timeline.
30 days from publication: all that time it is visible in the feed and specialists can send responses. The exact end date and time are shown on the order in your account. From that moment the order is closed and a response can no longer be accepted. You can cancel it earlier, and if no specialist turned up, post a new one.
Yes: you can hide your name and photo in an order. The anonymity lasts until acceptance — the specialist whose response you accept sees your name and photo. The task description is public: anyone visiting the site can read it.
Only after acceptance — when you accept their response or they accept your request. And only the contacts you chose to show.
After acceptance you see the contacts the specialist chose to show, and they see the ones you chose. You can also message on Nexperity when the chat is on: on an order you decide that, on a direct request the specialist does.
Once the work is done, mark the order or the collaboration completed in your account — then you can say whether you recommend the specialist. A review can only be left for a collaboration that happened through Nexperity: one per specialist, which you can change or delete at any time.
For specialists
Nothing for now: this is the free period, and no subscription is needed yet. Nexperity takes no commission on deals — you settle with the client directly.
Sign up, fill in your specialist profile and add your services — each with a category, a description and a price. Once the profile is complete, it appears in search and on the category pages.
Two ways: clients send you requests from your profile, which you can accept or decline; and you see public orders in your categories in your account and can respond to them.
You describe how you will do the task and give a price and, optionally, a timeline. The client compares responses and accepts one.
Contacts set to “Public” are visible to everyone on your profile. A client sees contacts set to “After connection” once you accept their request or they accept your response. “Hidden” ones are not revealed in new connections: a contact already revealed to a client stays visible to them.
Each service has a fixed price, a range, an hourly rate or “on request”. Prices show on your profile and in search results, and you agree the final price with the client.
Through search and the category pages of your services. The order depends on your clients' reviews — how many of them recommend you — and in search also on how well your services match the query.
A photo, a description, your region and way of working — online or in person — your contacts and a portfolio: photos of your work, each with a short caption if you like.
A client leaves a review after completed work, and only for a collaboration through Nexperity: they say whether they recommend you and may add a few words. Each client counts once, however many times you work together.
