Artisan Ink
November 15, 2024
Thailand has become one of the world's great tattoo destinations. The combination of accessible travel, exceptional artistry, and significant price advantage compared to Western studios has created a thriving community of international tattoo clients who plan their visits to Thailand specifically around getting tattooed.
"The best tattoo experience in Thailand isn't the cheapest one. It's the one you're still proud of ten years later."
Hygiene: What You Must Verify
At Artisan Ink in Chiang Mai, we operate to full western-standard hygiene protocols — single-use sterile needles opened in front of clients, medical-grade surface sterilisation between every client, and premium imported inks.
- Are needles single-use and opened fresh in front of me?
- What sterilisation equipment do you use?
- What inks do you use and where are they sourced?
- Is the workspace cleaned between clients?
