I had a Sak Yant (paed tidt) done by Chai. Didn’t really hurt at all but took a long time due to the amount of detail involved.
Very happy with it and the staff were great too!

It is not only hygienic and nice, it was indeed a great pleasure having Ben and Chai whom gave us a great traditional handheld five line sat yan with a blessing. Highly recommended for those who want to get a first tattoo in Thailand.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Ajarn Chai welcomes both women and men. As a dedicated Sak Yant Ajarn rather than a monk, traditional physical proximity taboos do not apply. Female clients can receive authentic consultations, application, and full activation blessings in a comfortable, respectful environment.
-
Ajarn Chai teaches that the core rules of Sak Yant center on honorable living—respecting parents and teachers, avoiding harm to others, and maintaining moral integrity. During your consultation, Ajarn Chai will explain any specific guidelines tied to your chosen Yant design so you can preserve its protection and positive energy.
-
Ajarn Chai was formally trained and ordained at Wat Nai Tao in Huai Yot, Trang. The power of your Sak Yant comes directly from this authentic lineage, sacred Khom script, and traditional activation chants—whether you choose traditional hand-poked (Khem Sak) application or modern machine execution.
