Samoan Tattoo Photo #13574

Known as tatau, the practice carries deep cultural meaning tied to identity, rank, and community service. The bold geometric patterns and rituals surrounding the process set Samoan ink apart from every other tattoo style.

Geometric tattoos use precise lines, angles, and repeated shapes to form structured compositions. Symmetry and mathematical patterns give these designs a modern, architectural quality.

Neck tattoos are among the most visible placements, making a confident statement. The area suits small, detailed designs behind the ear or bold pieces on the side or back of the neck.
