I’m talking about the chest cutting — smooth curves like this sankofa design can be a challenge. This was done by Brian at Pure Body Arts in Brooklyn, NY. I wanted to mention again that because there are so few advanced and experienced practitioners in this world that if you live in an area where there isn’t anyone, you can organize a tour… In general, all you have to do is get a small number of people together that guarantee enough appointments to make the tour possible — convince your friends/customers!

That’s lovely… Can’t wait till I get an oppurtunity to get a chest cutting, they look incredible!
That’s beautiful. Both sets of curves, as far as I can tell. 🙂

I personally really like the design. It is simple but seems to flow really well. I would love to see it when it heals completely.
