Traditional Maori tattooing, ta moko, is usually done on the face and is done as a strong statement of the individuals belonging as a Maori. The patterns can take up the whole area of the face and are specific to ones family and tell a lot about the wearer and their social standing. They can be done by both needle and hand tool,depending on the request of the client, having it done by a hand tool or ihu is traditionally how it is done.
