Best place to get a sak yant tattoo? (Both from ajarns/monks or tattoo studios, I’m still not decided where to go)

I will be staying a week in Chiang Mai and always had the dream to do a sak yant tattoo. I know all the respect and meaning that is given to these tattoos by the locals, so I don’t want to be the classical disrespectful westerner who goes to the monk and then ignores all the teachings and prescriptions linked with the tattoo.

So, I am still on the fence, how do I go about doing a sak yant, while being a westerner who doesn’t believe in any religion, but really loves and respect the beauty and symbolism/meaning of this tattoo practice?

Any tips about good artists/studios/ajarns or just comments about the philosophical implications of getting a sak yant are highly appreciated
