Swirly Polynesian chest and half sleeve tattoo

A popular style for Polynesian tattoos is to get the tribal tattoo inked on half of the chest, extending into a half sleeve tattoo on the arm. The focal point of this guy’s Polynesian tattoo is a swirl that begins on his right shoulder and radiates outward all the way onto his chest. The tribal arm and chest tattoo incorporates a variety of traditional Polynesian tattoo symbols, including tribal spear heads representing courage and strength. The Polynesian tattoo also features tribal waves and geometrical triangles, or shark’s teeth, which are typically meant to be symbols of protection.
