Tite - Owner & Lead Artist

Tight is the heart and soul behind Tight Tattoo Ink, and his journey into tattooing is one of passion, risk, and perseverance.

His love for drawing began in childhood and followed him into adulthood. Though he originally worked in sales, Tight began tattooing friends in his spare time. Everything changed during a holiday in Phuket, where he was offered the chance to work with one of Thailand’s top tattoo judges at a shop in Patong.

He started from the bottom - cleaning, designing, and observing - before earning his place as a respected artist. Under the mentorship of Lama, he developed his skills and eventually specialized in realistic and portrait tattoos.

“I am grateful every day for the chance I was given. I wouldn’t be who I am today without that experience”.

When the pandemic closed the Patong shop, Tight took a leap of faith and opened his own studio in Bangkok with his wife. Now, three years later, Tight Tattoo Ink continues to grow ‚fuelled by ambition, resilience, and community support.

We have big plans for the shop. It’ll take time, but we’ll get there. Reach for the stars‚ your dreams can become reality if you put in the effort.
