Polynesian, Samoan, Marquesan, Hawaiian tattoos…what is the difference?
Usually, all these tattoo styles from that area of the planet are called Polynesian, but each tattoo style may vary based on the area and culture of that area: The Polynesian islands
Sometimes some clients, before ordering their tattoo with me, ask: “Hi Juno, I want a custom tattoo design created by you but…what is the best Polynesian style for my tattoo? which style should I choose?“
On this page you will find a quick guide to clear up your doubts:
FIRST TIP: CHOOSE THE STYLE THAT YOU LOVE
And, going further: a style – of your liking – in which you can add the Polynesian symbols and designs that represent you, yours…your own story.
Polynesian tattoo styles:
Marquesan tattoo style:
Let’s start with the most popular: Marquesan tattoo style. The Polynesian tattoos of actor and wrestler Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson are, logically, very popular, and it is a highly requested tattoo style by junotattoodesigns.com clients.
Since I do a modern, an updated Polynesian style of tattoos, in a style like this we can add – in addition to the classic Polynesian symbols of prosperity, family, strength, courage, ancestors – contemporary designs that each client requires to tell their own story.
Of course, these tattoo styles can cover any area you want: shoulder, shoulder plus half chest, 3/4 of arm, full arm, leg, armband…
If this is the style you want, send me an Easy Tattoo Form and tell me more about the tattoo you want and I’ll do it for you 100% ONLINE!
SAMOAN TATTOO STYLE
It is basically built with straight lines and strips of Polynesian designs like shark teeth, ocean waves, spearheads, stones, triangles. These Polynesian tattoos are more geometric, often symmetrical.
We cannot see there designs like turtles, suns, sharks, manta rays, or logos, dates, names… no recognizable or complex drawings. Only straight lines and small and repetitive geometric designs.
