Bao Bamboo Tattoo kohlipe

Bao Bamboo Tattoo does traditional bamboo-method tattoos on Walking Street, where a handmade bamboo needle replaces the machine. Prices start at 1,500 baht for small designs. The process is quieter and many say less painful than machine tattoos. Bao is the artist, and his Thai-traditional designs — sak yant motifs, marine life, island patterns — are the specialty. Custom work takes a consultation. The studio is clean with single-use needles. A permanent Koh Lipe souvenir.
