    Any respectable tattoo artist would use a microplane.

      All 3 of mine have taken a credit card without batting an eye.

      I find it hard to believe anyone at a proper studio is going to balk at taking card payment. They’re a business.

      Cash only tattoo is a giant red flag you’re dealing with a fly-by-night scratcher. Run.

      Why wouldn’t they take credit card?

          And you would than need to prove what fraud happened.

          Chargebacks aren’t these magical things, they get investigated.

            How closely do you think they investigate? Because they sure as shit won’t be visiting your home to check for fresh tattoos.

              Tattoo artists take pictures of their work no? Investigation asks the vendor for proof too, they send the picture of their receipt, ink job and waiver….

                I’ve been to multiple tattoo parlors. None took pictures, likely because none of my tattoos were especially unique. The only reason I could think of for it to be worth a picture is because my tattoos have a lot of line work. This is also a complete hypothetical, because all of my tattoos were cash only.

                  Get cash and no evidence of work to skip the IRS/CRA get hit elsewhere, that’s the risk you take.

                  Legit shops won’t get scammed since it’s cut and dry work was done.

      The artist I just got a tattoo from was fine with taking a credit card. I thought it was weird too, but they are out there

        What’s weird about it? Most businesses take credit cards.

          From my experience they prefer payment that isn’t easily disputed / claimed as fraud. Don’t get me wrong I was more than happy to get the points, it’s just unusual, since they do typically prefer cash / cash adjacent

            They prefer cash to avoid the IRS, it’s so THEY can do the fraud.

            Legit businesses don’t need to worry about being scammed since any chargebacks get investigated. A receipt, a picture of the tattoo and a signed waiver, zero chance of the fraud working out in the scammers favour.

        I’m betting that a tattoo artist isn’t going to be as civil or forgiving as a graphic designer about getting stiffed.
