The Legend of Telesa

Ever been told to cover the mirror up at night? Or comb your hair in the moonlight? this is in case you attract or offend the Teine Sa.. 

They are beautiful and fearsome in equal measure, they are the spirit women who wander the villages of Samoa guarding different villages..one of the most well known is Telesa the aiku goddess of Lepea in Upolu.

In Samoa, your hair, flowing, waving and weaving, becomes alive with magic in the moonlight....

Beware the power of your hair and beware the flaunting of it, lest the fury of the Teine Sa is invoked.
