Samoa tattoo

I chose this samoa tatu because it is beautiful. And it was hard to do it so I got help from the class. The traditional female tattoo in Samoa is the Malu. In Samoan society, the Pe'a and the Malu are viewed with cultural pride and identity as well as a hallmark of manhood and womanhood. 'Tatau is an ancient Polynesian art form which is associated with the rites of passage for men. these Samoa tattoo hurt. Not only did these tattoos take a long time to complete, but they were also extremely painful. Depending on the part of the body, the process could be excruciating. It took a lot of courage and endurance and required recuperation between sessions.
