The best tattoo parlors

Post by Sir_Quality_U_Feel »

Who has any experience with getting a tattoo here in Phnom Penh? I am looking to get my first and most likely last tattoo. I was thinking of waiting until Bangkok in a few months, but was wondering if there are any skilled KHMER artists here in Phnom Penh that anyone knows of?

I am looking for a Khmer artist simply because I need Khmer script tattooed. Thanks everyone.

That is what I was leaning strongly towards doing. Just curious if anyone has had any ink done here in Phnom Penh.

I've had a half sleeve done here, some really detailed stuff as well.

Used RSD on street 51. The Khmer artist was very good and professional.

I stopped at RSD on 51 once.. When i asked to see the autoclave the guy took me to another room and showed me a small toaster oven that they use to sterilize the ink reservoir and needles. I have plenty of tattoos, all from my home country, and will not be getting one done in Cambodia.

Go to Thailand.

I was sat in the tattoo parlour earlier when a butterfly flew past with a picture of a slag on its wing.

I know you are in PP. There is a professional Khmer tattoo artist on Sok San road in Siem Reap. The place seems to be frequented a lot of by barangs.
