 Maori Tattoo

You might have noticed that over the last couple of years there has been a major increase in the amount of people getting a Maori Tattoo, some will go for a temporary tattoo while others will go for a more permanent one. Many people like the designs of the Maori Tattoo & see it as a kind of tattoo art which they have embraced although some Maoris don’t agree with non Maori people getting Maori tattoos which they don’t know anything about. You see, Maori tattoos or Ta Moko aren’t just a form of art, they actually mean something, they are a sign which the next person can interpret. Maori tattoo meanings are varied, they could be used as a form of identification, tribal history, rank or eligibility to marry & many more uses. Many of us will look at tattoo design websites before we decide to buy a tattoo.

Because of their popularity, Maori tribal tattoos are worn in the west just for their pretty designs but they have lost their true meanings to non Maoris. It must make some people laugh that certain famous people are now getting these tattoos but don’t know their true meaning. So if you’re thinking about getting one of these Maori tattoos, make sure you look up the meaning first before you get inked.

If you've already gotten one of these tattoos and you've just figured out that it means something which does not suit you or who you are then you may need to look into information on how to hide a tattoo. Be warned though, sometimes covering up a tattoo can be just as bad as getting it removed. It just goes to show that studying Maori tattoo history is better than taking any chances in the long run.
