Safe Tattoo's

[farang noi]

Hi does anybody know a good and clean tatto artist in bkk??

I know that there are a few in the sukhumvit area but are they clean?

I want new needels and good hygiene.

If anyone can recommend anybody I would be very thankfull

I had one done on my left arm, workmanships lousy in Thailand, had to have it redone in New Zealand. There's rumours going around of those shops which have autoclaving machines but dunno how to use them.

Anyways trust yurself. Ask to see the needles before they use it. They should be individually packed. USE ONLY DISPOSABLES. Cause somebody loves you.

I had a tattoo done up in Samrong. He did a good job and only uses new disposable needles.

Remember for the first week or two you do need to take care of your tattoo and be careful how you clean it when you get the scabs.

He is up in the Imperial World on about the 3rd or 4th floor. Imperial world is about Sukhumvit 109 or 111. The easy way to get there is to catch the BTS to On Nut and get a Taxi.

If you enter Imperial World through the front, walk past McDonalds, there is an escalator, I cannot remember what floor, but as you get off the escalator, he is about 10 - 15m on the right. Its on the same floor (I think) as the table tennis tables, and other games.

Take someone who speaks Thai, if you cannot.

thanks guys

it sounds to me like I willhave to do some scouting before I get started on my tattoo's. I speak a little thai myself so that should not be a broblem.

If anyone else has an artist to recomend I will still like to hear from you

cheers

Go buy a few tattoo magazines or go online. It seems there are a couple of shops that won the tattoo competes a couple of years back. Just remember the disposable needle thingy and you should be fine

Anyways what have you in mind about the design?

A couple of mine were done in that place in the Bayon building on Kaosan Rd.

Sometimes I regret the one on my chest, but that is because it is shit, not because the tatooist was.

Farang Noi, definately scout the places out, look at their equipment and talk with the artists before making a decision.

I said you were looking into BKK, but Pattaya has some tattoists with good reputations as well.

Why don't you go to some of the temples and have a look for inspiration? Saw a very kool Kirin just the other day.
