Tattoos

[George36]

Arriving in Thailand February 15th for, at least, 30 days.  I am looking to get tattoos, one on top of each arm.  Figure about four inches by four inches for each.

 

Would appreciate any recommendations of tattoo shops.

 

Thanks

Where in thailand will you be basing yourself?

Save your time and money by waiting a few years till you start getting varicose veins.

 

No point in paying good money to cover yourself in unsightly graffiti when nature will eventually do the same job for you free of charge.

Tattoos here can be expensive if you are a foreign tourist. You need to clearly know what you want tattood, know what it would cost in your home country and then compare pricing here once the tattooist quotes based on your sketch or photo. Also watch for quality, there some bad tattooists amongst the group. Never get a tattoo without a firm pricing first and preferably check the tattooists handywork and cleanliness. Good luck

Go for it and simply ignore all the warnings about getting tattoos, especially those with multiple colored inks. Wait until the dyes in the ink along with the carcinogens and lead present leech into your skin. Welcome to the wonderful world of cancer.

Pattaya.  This seems to be one of the best as they have 77 five star reviews.  http://tetattoo.com/About_Und_us/56b30adefe32ff8039b21606

 

Thanks for the replies.  All are appreciated.

Favorite show is Inkmaster in United States.  Have complete faith when done right.  

 

Thanks for your thoughts.

Thanks.  Will visit them when I get to town.  Will, probably, visit two or three to get a feel for the artists.  Not sure if I desire black and white or color.

 

One tattoo will be the names of our two grandchildren and the other will be a “forever” tattoo with my wife of 35 years and my names.  Sentimental stuff.  Lol.  Not sure about designs.

 Did they buy the 5 star reviews like the flight / hotel booking sites?

Yeah, it's impossible to fake Facebook reviews...

Save your money and your health. Buy a ball point pen!

 

Let the grandkids write their own names on your arms.

Moving to Pattaya forum for localised knowledge and input.

Yep encourage them to write on you, to keep them away from writing on the wall paper!

I'm sure young "spring roll" and "fish balls" will both be very proud to see their names in ink...
