Scarification Kyoto Style
Quite a few of the scarification superstars (scars on ModBlog, scars on BME) have done Japanese tours, but there’s quite a bit of local talent as well. For example, these very clean cuttings were all cut by Bin in Kyoto, Japan at Body Piercing Studio Scamp.
Wonderwoman Suspends!
Another photo from one of ModBlog‘s favorite back yards!
Grrrr!
Big nostrils, big labret, big lobes, and a forehead Star of David, but remember — if you don’t brush your teeth often enough, they’ll be permanently stained yellow! So don’t skip the top row or you’ll end up with golden teeth too. Seriously though, I think if I ever do any tooth mods myself, I’m getting warthog teeth. That’s what I really want — big lower jaw tusks like a troll or something.
PS. I’m not kidding.
Lingum Piercing
Alicia in Melbourne, Australia had this unique piercing done by Sallyann at Hair House Warehouse in Broadmeadows — it’s a horizontal under-the-tongue surface piercing (aka a “lingum piercing“, one of the rarest variations on unusual tongue work). Before you say “oh, that’s going to reject,” I’ll mention that it’s about ten months old in this photo.
J’Adore Jagermeister
“My boyfriend and I love Jagermeister, but he’s taken it to another level,” she writes. Tattoo by Pin at Ink Link Tattoos in Charlotte, NC.
Freaks Bloody Tricks
I spend too much time in the company of four year olds, because the first thing I thought when I looked at this picture was “chooo choooo!”.
