This was my very first tattoo and waited 30 years for this! I searched online and did research on Polynesian tattoos here in the valley. I contacted Arauna via email and I went in for a consultation within a week. He asked me about what I wanted the tattoo to represent and what was important to me. I gave him a direction of how I wanted it to look/placement and we scheduled for the appointment on a different date. I went into the appointment and he advised that he does not use pre-drawn stencils. This is all hand drawn! Given this was my first tattoo, I'm not going to lie, I was nervous but yet excited. He translated what was important to me beautifully Polynesian style on my wrist/forearm. I'm proud to wear my heritage and tell my story. I get comments all the time and I for sure let them know for sure where I got it done. Thank you Arauna.
