My girlfriend getting (another) tattoo on Ko Pha-ngan. This one means bravery or something like that and the eagle eyed amongst you will notice this tattoo is done in the traditional Bamboo style. No machines here.
Tattoo was done at the Dragon Tattoo place just off the main street on Ko Pha-ngan. Nice place with friendly tattooists who speak english.

Me and a few of the tribe members of TATAK NG APAT NA ALON TRIBE. along with WHANG-OD the last of the tattooist of the kalinga or in general of northern luzon that practices the old way.. it was really a great honor because we were there at the diddiga festival with LARS who also is a friend of ours and did the show TATTOO HUNTER on discovery channel with WHANG-OD. and so it was a great honor for me for her to ask me to tattoo her when she is the LAST tattooist in the region and the master, like a master passing the blessing onto an apprentice…. so it was so great..
and she took it like a CHAMP!!! and was not moving at all… and the tool i was using was a bamboo and from Benguet by the the ibaloi tribe the bottom part of it is shaped like a SNAKE’s head and the mouth of the snake is where the needles go.. so the HSSS!! of the snake is when you get blessing or tattoo of the warrior symbols of our fallin ancestors.. (of course if any one wanted to know it is not recycled the TOOL it is brand new always and made again and again i replicated the shape so that the symblism can still be powerful when someone is getting tattooed)

I got my tattoo at Kho Phangan in Thailand after my little world trip from europe to australia and back through Asia in the year 2007. They way how the tattoo artist did it is called bamboo technic, what they used to do 2000 years ago in Japane already… It cost me almost europe price standard but therefor it is worth it

This year, roughly one year since the last Sak Yant (tattoo) by Archarn Anek, I made the trip back to his office. There, I undertook a larger portion of the project, spending two days there. The first day was over seven hours under the needle, and the second day I spent between four and five hours under the needle.
This video depicts the events of that first day, sharply abbreviated and under ten minutes to share with you.
I learned alot more about the Ajarn this time, as I had the istance of not one but three translators, including a monk and his own daughter. I also had my friend, Nick, from the USA with me, although the day proved long and I let him off the hook and let him go off to eat and shop.
In this video I try to show a bit more about the process he uses to sterilize the needles, since I’m often asked about it. Once again, if you require an autoclave, you might as well forget about Sak Yant. I’m not aware of any temples or Ajarns that use them.
Note: For more on the history of sak-yant, please see the description in my other video, go to http://www.sak-yant.com, or go to the Ajarn’s website.
