  4. Kia ora Room 7!

    What a great Ta Moko you have, Lara! We think that you must be very proud to wear it. We did a bit of research about the Ta Moko and found out that they are symmetrical. We found this great website http://www.zealandtattoo.co.nz/tattoo-styles/maori-tattoo/ with lots of examples of patterns and how they are designed! Did you all know these facts as well or are some of them new to you?
