My name is Mana Fifita and I am the founder of Doko Ink. I specialized in authentic Polynesian Tattoo Art.
I started my business Doko Ink over 15 years ago. I was allowed to gain insight into this art very early and was introduced to tattooing by one of the first well-known Polynesian artists in New Zealand.
Due to my Tongan roots, I have a deep and meaningful understanding of authentic Polynesian tattoo art. My work is characterized by freehand tattooing.
The population is becoming more socially and culturally aware and demanding tattoos that are more than just aesthetically pleasing.
Customers are demanding pieces that are unique and bespoke to them as individuals and most importantly tell their own story.
