HOW TO CHOOSE A RESPECTED THAI TATTOO ARTIST IN BANGKOK

Thailand has a long tattoo tradition that includes both traditional Sak Yant and modern tattoo styles. Choosing the right artist depends on the type of tattoo you want, their experience, hygiene practices, portfolio, and understanding of the style they work in.

At Thai Tattoo Café, our team includes traditional Sak Yant masters and professional tattoo artists. Sak Yant and modern tattooing are different practices, so we match clients with the appropriate master or artist for the work they want.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A THAI TATTOO ARTIST

A professional tattoo artist should have experience in the style you are requesting, a portfolio of healed and fresh work, careful hygiene practices, and the ability to explain the design and tattooing process clearly.

For Sak Yant, additional knowledge is important. The master should understand traditional Yant designs, Ancient Khom script, Katha, placement rules, ceremony, and the teachings of their lineage.

TATTOO ARTISTS & SAK YANT MASTERS AT THAI TATTOO CAFÉ

Thai Tattoo Café offers both modern tattooing and traditional Sak Yant in a private, appointment-only tattoo house in the Bangkok area.

Our Sak Yant tattoos are performed by experienced Thai Ajarns using the traditional Thai hand-poke method with ceremony and blessing.

For modern tattoos, our tattoo artists work in a range of styles and can help develop a design based on your ideas, references, placement, and preferred size.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT ARTIST FOR YOUR TATTOO

Send us the style or design you are interested in, along with the placement, approximate size, and reference images. For Sak Yant, you can also send the design number and name or tell us the meaning or intention you are looking for.

We can then help arrange your appointment with the appropriate tattoo artist or Sak Yant master.
