A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Handpoked Breast and Nipple Tattoos

Grace Neutral, a tattoo artist who specializes in handpoked work and is based in South London (although she travels regularly so don’t let that limit you — find her on Facebook or Tumblr) just did this incredible set of breast/nipple tattoos on Rebecka. Painwise, she tells me that the nipples hurt like crazy, but that it’s likely that doing them handpoked rather than grinding the ink in with a machine probably reduced the pain significantly.

    Had mine tattooed over, hand poke style and was able to zone out for most of it, thought close to the armpit was worse!

    Very tough girl to get them so heavily covered though, amazing quality of work too!

    I’ve had my nipples tattooed solid purple, more than once. First time sucked REALLY bad. So the second time (years later, different artist) I brought my vibrator. I got to have an orgasm as they were being completed. That time was MUCH better.
