My husband and I have been to Thailand a few times, and the idea of getting a Sak Yant Tattoo has peaked out interest for our trip this year. Reading what you said about being a female it is better to bring a male counterpart was very helpful, thank you!

I’m curious, you said that part of the deal was you could not take photos during the tattooing process. Was that specifically because you’re a female, but it’s alright to take pictures of your husband getting tattooed?

Glad you had a fun trip!

Thank you so much for the comment! Very exciting :) To be honest we haven’t been back to Thailand since we got our tattoos and not sure when we will be able to return. It still looks excellent, I guess it’s just missing some of the power from getting the annual blessing done from the monk. To be it was still well worth it even if I never get to return for the touch up :) Hope that helps!

You had me sold on the authenticity yet sanitary maintenance- as it should be! I don’t think any body should have to catch ANY DISEASE-granted I know it’s been awhile since, but simply fir trying to get a tattoo lol jeeeez! That is brutal and completely scared me out of the whole idea until I read your informative review, so thank you thank you!! My only issue is that I just had a baby about 8 months ago and don’t see myself being able to take trips to Thailand or Tibet to maintain my tattoo annually… is there an alternative for this?

Awesome! If you follow the link in the post to Chiang Mai Locals at the end that will take you to them :) They recently changed their website but the link will take you there :) Cheers!!
