Sayings for a tattoo
A qualified tattoo master will help to avoid embarrassing situations when applying intimate tattoos and will offer the client a catalog of inscriptions, which are presented already with translation.
The process of creating a tattoo phrase sketch allows you to try on several variants of different fonts. The choice of calligraphy can be influenced not only by the client's desire, but also by the language of the statement. For example, tattoo phrases of hieroglyphs are difficult to imagine in the design of a monogram. They are supposed to be strictly applied.
The best phrases for tattoos, made in different stylistics and located in different places will look very different, even in case of full coincidence of statements. One of the main tasks of the master and the client when creating the sketch is to keep it readable. It is important not to over-decorate the phrase and preserve it for the long term. Artists know for sure that an abundance of fine lines, placed very close together, can distort over time. In this case you need either to correct the image or remove the tattoo by laser.

Thai language
The language of Thais rather complicated. Do you want to show off your knowledge of it? Learn by heart the full name of the capital of Thailand, which entered into the Guinness Book of Records as the longest in the world (21 words). On the other hand, to ask a Thai in his native language means to protect yourself from overpriced for tourists for the service, and in some cases from deception.
Practice shows that the best explanation with Thais is made by those who use a sincere smile, a friendly tone, facial expressions and the so-called "Taiglish" - a mixture of Thai and English. Thais will smile, nod and understand nothing until you make a really simple sentence. The words "kap" and "kaa" will make any phrase polite. For example, a man's thank you is "kapkhun kap" and a woman's thank you is "kapkhun kaa".
