BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

Nipple Sun Tattoo

Written by

Shannon Larratt

Laura writes,

“This is my first tattoo, I got it today. It was done by Newt at Physical Graffiti in Rochester, NY. I’m not going to say it didn’t hurt, but I don’t know how a tattoo on a “normal” part of my body would feel. I like it but I’m planning on getting it added to, either with color or with lettering on the inside. My favorite part is the stars, I hope to get them colored in someday. Hope you like it!”

I do like it, and (not that nipples aren’t great to start with, but…) think more people should make their nipples a little more interesting.

    I agree with John, that tat isn’t done that well. This is a cool ass idea, but the tat itself isn’t that great.

    Great idea, and you went all out for a first design. Is it a matching pair? I agree some color would be nice.

    Wonderful! I am getting my areolas tattooed soon and trying to get some ideas…The other comments are correct, it is not symmetrical and therefore takes away from the gorgeous breasts she has. But it still rocks!
