Hi Sylvie. I enjoyed your recent post about receiving your sak yant. Your tattoo is great, by the way, and your post was enlightening and very interesting.
I'm heading to Thailand in a couple months and have every intent of trying to find a place that will do this for me. I'm very preliminary in my research so far, I just know I want one - so any light you can shed on receiving a sak yant would be helpful. You mentioned you got yours from Arjan Pi in Bangkok, is this a place that you would suggest I go? Do I pre-book an appointment or something?
As well, from other people I know that have gotten sak yants before, they have mentioned that some places will choose it for you? Any truth to that? You mentioned that he had a book that you looked through, is this typically how someone would pick which one they wanted?
And lastly, is the aftercare similar to a regular tattoo? I will be in Thailand for 3 weeks and am not too sure if I should get it at the start of my trip or at the tail end of it.
Anyways, I appreciate your time and thank you.
Anyone who has any helpful advice, feel free to chime in.

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions. You were very helpful and I appreciate it.
Another query - Can you give me a range of what I should expect for a cost? And, as well, what would the cultural manner be regarding gratuities and if they are expected or accepted?
Thank you again.
