Most people ink Medusa without ever learning her true story.

But here’s the truth:

Medusa wasn’t born a villain. She was a survivor. A woman punished for being assaulted — then transformed into a symbol of fear.

But today, we reclaim her!

For the many whom, Medusa represents:
• Protection from SA violence
• Survival after trauma
• The rage that rises from injustice
• Sacred feminine power
• Turning pain into protection

At Judge MyInk, tattoos are more than skin deep — they’re statements, shields, and stories you wear with pride.

⚖️ Before you call it just “a cool design,” know this:

Every time we ink Medusa — we honour every woman who was blamed for what was done to her.

We ink from legacy. We ink for healing.

Atamārie i te whānau — it’s your girl Tee. 🙋🏽‍♀️. Grab your cup ‘cause I’ve got the Tea this morning. ☕️

Real, raw, and long overdue.

I’ve been working harder than an ugly stripper on payday — and still getting taxed like I’m dancing in Parliament. 😂

But let’s get honest:

Nobody teaches us this part of business.
Where the hype fades. The bookings slow. And the overwhelm hits so hard even Canva starts feeling like a scam.

You don’t burn out because you’re weak.
You burn out because we’re building on broken systems.

And no — that’s not a motivational post.
That’s real pain wrapped in invoice receipts.

We were taught to:
• Grind for every dollar
• Trade hours for validation
• Wear burnout like a badge of honour

But that’s not business. That’s compliance. And it was never built for us — especially not for small-town creatives, māmā, hustlers, or service-based brands.

That’s why so many of us end up stuck inside the very hustle we were trying to break free from.

💀 The kind of burnout where:
• Your body taps out before your to-do list
• Your spirit’s tired but can’t afford to rest
• Your dreams feel heavier than your debt
• Every bill hits like a bad tattoo — permanent, painful, and poorly timed

💥 The silence on our pages this year?
That wasn’t defeat, that was me going ALL-IN. That was deep work. Late nights. Long builds. Designing something that’s never existed for us before.

A system that works for us — not against us. A structure that respects our time, our culture, our wellbeing, and our freedom.

🔥 Introducing: Te Whare o NgaTeez – Business & Beauty Hub.

A licensed pilot space built using the protected House of Tohu System —
designed specifically to uplift and equip small-town service providers, product makers, and creatives ready to do things differently.

✨ It’s not just a space. It’s a strategy.
Where you can:
✔️ Polish your craft
✔️ Test-drive your business with real support
✔️ Learn the backend systems they never taught us
✔️ Protect your time, energy, and ideas
✔️ Start building for legacy — not just for the ‘gram

💭 Thought for the day:
If your business disappeared tomorrow — would you still be free?

If not, then fam… maybe it’s not freedom you’ve built. Maybe it’s a prettier version of the same old trap.

⸻

📣 So tag your fave creatives, māmā-run brands, small-town hustlers.

The ones grinding in silence, trying to make something out of nothing.

Let them know there’s a new system being built. Not for clout. But for community. And it’s starting right here in Kawerau!

A like. A comment. A share.
Costs nothing — but could change someone’s whole future!

Because the enemy is not each other.
It’s the BS we inherited before we even had a name.

It’s time for a full system reset —
and this is where it begins. 🧱✨

EXPRESSION OF INTEREST COMING SOON so tag the whanau - join us here fam and don’t forget to keep it locked.

Wear your story.
Give something back to you

Tattoo ink sits in the dermis, the second layer of skin — and that’s why it lasts.

It’s also where your immune system constantly tries to remove it...

Cover-ups take serious strategy.

You’re not starting with clean skin — you’re layering new work over scar tissue or faded ink.

The darker and bolder your original piece, the more layering is required.

Most cover-ups need at least double the pigment, bolder linework, and clever colour theory to work.

💡 If you’re serious about a big cover-up, look for a colour realism artist or specialist in dark-layer design — someone who works with contrast, depth, and correction techniques.

The truth? 9 out of 10 people have a tattoo they want to change.

We’re just here to help you make the right choice — even if it’s not us!
