Tattoo Chiang Mai - Getting a new Tattoo in Thailand

If you are visiting Chiang Mai and looking for a tattoo shop, there are many places you can visit. There are many different styles and artists to choose from. Some tattoo shops also offer tattoo artists with different levels of experience. We at Warp Tattoo Chiang Mai speak English, German and Thai. All our artists are well trained and have a tattoo certificate.

Sak Yant tattoos are a cultural tradition in Thailand

Sak Yant tattoos are symbols of the Buddhist faith and are an integral part of the local culture in Chiang Mai. The designs are geometric in nature and feature the symbols of the Buddha. Some of the designs also feature deities or mythical creatures from the Buddhist and Hindu traditions. These tattoos can serve many purposes.

The process of getting a sak yant tattoo is highly ritualized. Only tattoo masters who understand the meaning and the power of this ancient art form are qualified to perform sak yant tattoos. The process is highly involved, beginning with a long discussion between you and your tattoo artist. This is followed by a series of prayers and additional rituals. In some cases, there will even be elements of magic involved in the process.

They are done by a Buddhist monk or our Tattoo Artists

In the traditional Thai style of tattooing, a Buddhist monk gives a tattoo in a small temple in the country. The monk uses a metal needle, a rag or tissue, and special magical ink to create a unique tattoo design. The monk will work with bare hands and disinfect the needle before using it. The process is centuries old and has not yet been modified to meet modern hygiene standards.

In our Tattoo Shop we provide you with the highest hygiene standard to make your Sak Yant Tattoo in a safe environment.

When compared to Western tattoos, the Sak Yant method is less painful, since the tattoo is performed by hand and the needle does not penetrate as deeply. Moreover, the tattooing process is slower, allowing the body time to recover from the procedure. Afterwards, you'll be asked to bow to the monk and donate to the temple. These donations are used to improve the temple and help the community. The monks live in a working temple and devote their lives to studying the words of Buddha.

If you get a Sak Yant Tattoo at Warp Tattoo you won’t have to bow to a monk however, you can visit a temple and get a blessing for your Tattoo from a monk!

They are believed to have magical protection powers

Tattoos in Chiang Mai are sacred blessings that are believed to protect you from harm. Traditionally, an Ajarn will bestow a Sak Yant on a student in order to ensure their protection. They are given to the student by the Ajarn himself, who will decide which Sak Yant would best suit them. The Sak Yant tattoos are made by hand using a long, thin metal spike, a sharpened bamboo point, and ink. They can be received by both men and women.

Sak Yant Tattoos are believed to be the best form of protection against bad luck, black magic, and supernatural forces. The Sak Yant Tattoo design is a combination of geometrical patterns, and sometimes even Pali phrases. These tattoos are considered to be powerful, and can change your life and personality traits. The Sak Yant tattoo can also help you achieve your goals in life.
