Bamboo Tattoo in Phuket
The heart of what we do. Ancient technique, hand-done with precision.
At Ink By Bambooman, bamboo tattoo isn’t a trend — it’s a tradition. Every piece is hand-poked using a single needle and bamboo stick, resulting in clean, meaningful designs with less trauma to the skin.
This page will walk you through how it works, why people choose it, and what to expect.
What Is Bamboo Tattoo?
A machine-free, hand-poked technique passed down through generations.
Bamboo tattoo uses a traditional bamboo rod fitted with a single needle. Each dot of ink is manually tapped into the skin, slowly building the design by hand.
Unlike machine tattoos, there’s no buzzing, no vibration, and no harsh pressure. The process is quieter, more meditative, and for many — surprisingly relaxing.
