ore you read this please let me note, that I am not a proffesional, and that my methods are my personal beliefs, and do not represent a "right" way of doing things*** This "experience" is slightly different than most. In this experience I did not recieve a cutting, or branding, but I preformed a ritualistic branding on someone who was refered to me by a friend. I met this person, who I'll call Crystal, at my friends work. She explained exactley what she wanted to me, which was a fairly large sun-type design on her lower back. Apparently this symbol ...

to begin.... I suppose that my journey of scarification began when I was 12. I am 15 now. At first I just gouged at my skin with a pin, never really leaving a real scar or anything. However, later on I would begin to use things such as broken pieces of glass, scissors, and razors. The bulk of this experience is of the scarifications I did with a razor. Why did I cut myself? Most of the time it was because I felt lonely, bored, or depressed. I had, and still do, low self esteem and me seemingly endless self ...

s my ongoing experience of self scarification.... I started self scarification when I was about 16. I was depressed and bored. I decided to show my grief on my body. I started with small scratches and I hid the cuts under my watch band and the loads of silver bracelets on my arms. Soon I got very comfortable with the idea of cutting my self. I started to cut a little deeper and bigger, all over my body....arms, legs, and especially my wrists. In the beginning the cuts where my secret. But now I find the scares very beautiful especially ...

ng to have a cutting done was one of the more sporadic decisions of my life. I heard through the grapevine that an artist with an impeccable reputation was coming into town, I immediatley made an appointment. I had met Raelynn before because she did a piece on a friend of mine quite a while back. I loved the unusual features of a cutting and I knew that I wanted something unusual as well. I was also studying traditional African religions in college at the time, so having this cutting done had more than asthetic meaning for me. It was ...

I moved away from home (three years now) I have really wanted to get something wild done, like a piercing, or tattoo. So I got my belly button pierced, and my labret on the same day. Since then I have also gotten three tattoos, one of a Chinese fire sign on my shoulder, a tribal dragon armband, and a lower back tribal design. Last year, I decided that I wanted something more than a tattoo, something that would look really different. My friend Jackson, who has been into piercing and tattoos for as long as I have known him, told ...

pon a time, a young man by the name of Kenny de Frank decided that he couldn't wait any longer to be a tattoo artist, so, at fifteen years old, he made for himself a tattoo gun with a ball-point pen, a needle, remote control car motor, a series of rubber bands, and India ink. I was slightly impressed as he did all of this without having seen any plans for a gun. Next, he came up with a few great designs, and wanted to actually ink them. The problem with this was rather simple: Kenny was living in a ...

16 at the time and totally wild. Ever since I turned 13 I had been into tattoos and piercings. My mother totally didn't like the fact that I wanted a tattoo. It was all I could do to get her to let me have my ears pierced when I was 12. When I turned 16 I was determined to have my skin permanently marked some how, I didn't care how. I found out about scarification through a friend who was apprenticing at a tattoo parlor, so I became very interested in it. That's when I realized that was for me. ...

y name is Marc. I´m Portuguese, live in Sintra, Lisbon, and I would like to share what I went through when I visited Malawi 3 months ago. I decided to visit Malawi after a friend of mine had gone there on an "Overlander" trip in June ´99. He told me about the beautiful beaches, and easy lifestyle he had experienced there. After arriving, I teamed up with two other backpackers (Steffen Craske and Chris Marks, from N.Z.) , and we went to Salima beach. When we got there, we stayed at the "Baobab" lodge. On the third night, we were ...
