So contrary to Above's suggestion to just go with whatever's cheapest, I'd recommend anyone who wants a tattoo to commit themselves a bit to the task. Remember that not all tattoo artists are good at the same stuff and some are frankly just better than others in general. Do some research, spend perhaps a little more money. It's likely gonna be on your body for the rest of your life after all. Might as well get it right.

And again, unless you're seeing a master of portraits, don't get portrait tattoos.
