Discover the best places to get your Tattoo in Pattaya

Having the best tattoo means choosing the best tattoo studio. Pattaya, known for its night life and its energy, is quickly becoming a hotspot for tattoo lovers. The city offers a range of talented tattoo artists and studios, each bringing their own style and expertise. With so many choices, finding "THE ONE" can be tough. In this article, we’re thrilled to present our top recommendations for Pattaya tattoo studios, where professionalism meets creativity to give you a tattoo you’ll love forever!

What are the best tattoo studio criteria to consider?

If you want to find the best tattoo shop, consider these criteria:

  • Number of Reviews and Rating: Check the reviews on Google and ratings of the Pattaya studios. This classic way helps you really get a feel for the place and discover others' experiences, finding the good and bad aspects.

  • Number of Tattoo Artists: Having just one artist in a tattoo studio isn't negative, but a studio with many opens up a wider range of styles to explore. Multiple tattoo in the studio offer more gear and potentially better service. Check their reputation online. Yet, one tattoo artist is not a drawback!

  • Studio Images: Discover visual representations of the studio to uncover clues on its operation (e.g., cleanliness, modernity, design etc.).

  • Tattoo Images: Tattooing is an art, so as all art, it's purely subjective! Even if it's visually appealing, the artist's vibe may not resonate with you. It's essential to check their art work to ensure they match your style.

Note: Price is not necessarily a relevant criterion, as tattoos are generally very affordable in Thailand.

Why Is It Important to Find the Best Tattoo Studio?

  1. Quality of the Tattoo: That might sound logical, but you're investing in a forever art piece on your skin. That art will become a part of you. Finding the right expert is crucial to avoid any disappointments (forever).

  2. Avoiding Scams: Pattaya has hundreds of tattoo shops, and some of them might be amateur establishments that deliver poor-quality tattoos and may not follow hygienic practices. Be aware and check the studio on the internet before.

  3. Health Risks: Infection or diseases like AIDS are potential risks if you work with rookies. It’s essential to pay attention to the hygienic practices of your tattoo artist. For example, ensure the needle is changed ( you can ask the tattoo artist to open the new needle package in front of you), and that they provide aftercare products like healing cream or moisturizing cream.

FAQ – Getting a Tattoo in Pattaya

What is the best time of year to get a tattoo in Pattaya?

The low season (May to October) is an excellent time to get a tattoo in Pattaya. With fewer tourists, studios offer more availability.

With diminished sun intensity in the rainy season, there's also reduced UV exposure, aiding the healing process.

Should I avoid the sea or the sun after getting a tattoo?

Yes. You should avoid swimming and direct sun exposure right after getting a tattoo. Salt water, chlorine, UV rays and humidity can slow down healing, fade ink, or cause infections.

In Pattaya, enjoying the beach and the sea is common. So try to postpone It until your skin is fully healed (usually 2–3 weeks). The best would be to get your tattoo before leaving Pattaya!

If you really want to go (Once again we do not recommend), keep it short, cover the tattoo, and rinse with lukewarm fresh water afterward.

Can I get a tattoo while drunk in Pattaya?

Technically, yes!  but it’s definitely not the best idea...

If you're out having fun in Pattaya and feeling spontaneous, it might seem like a funny story to tell. But alcohol dilutes your blood, leading to more bleeding during the tattoo process, blurring the ink, and slowing down healing.

So if you want clean lines and good healing, we suggest to wait until the next day (and hydrate properly before). 

How long should I take care of my tattoo?

A tattoo is forever, just like the need for proper care. Moisturize your skin and shield it from the sun to maintain the sharp lines and vibrant colors.

See our article “How to keep your tattoo from fading?” for detailed advice.

How can I help my tattoo heal properly?

Apply a healing balm once or twice a day during the first 3–5 days, then keep moisturizing daily (2–3 times per day). To do so you can use a Tattoo balm. This maintains elasticity and brightness specifically for your tattoos.

The Laysen Tattoo Balm helps your tattoo stay vibrant and healthy for years.

Can I ask for a custom tattoo design or should I choose from their templates?

Yes, you can absolutely request a custom piece. Many artists in Pattaya  enjoy creating original designs. Present your idea before yo your tattoo artist to check if your need suit with their style. Some are specialized in bamboo/traditional styles, others in realism or black & grey. Good communication ensures you get the exact result you want.
