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.

Nice Double Daith Placement

This daith set was done by Benjamin at Spirit Garden Tattoo and Body Piercing in Northfield, MN, using 16ga 9/16″ and 5/16″ rings. I like when people take these really “simple” piercings and shine them up a little with pretty variations.

    I’ve read back entries of the modblog about stealing tattoo ideas and I’m trying to distinquish between getting inspiration and ripping someone off. Of course, with a graphic there are plenty of modifications you can make to the design. Piercings, not so much. What is the ettiquette on copying piercings? I really like this.

    Curious – I think in general it’s just fine, and certainly I’ve posted lots of double daiths to BME in the past (but I thought this was a nice placement).

    Simple but very effective, it looks so delicate and feminine.

    I really like how the 9/16ths ring hugs her ear just perfectly, and the 5/16ths ring is the perfect size to go inside it!

    Lovely.

    I like the set, and how well it is placed inside her ear, but I am completely distracted by the mole on the side of her face. She should get that looked at.

    Haha, awesome piercing 😀

    And Dude, that is hardly even a mole at all lol.
    When they need to be looked at they look a LOT scarier than that haha.

    The daith is gorgeous but the cheesecutter wire in the lobe looks out of place next to it…

    I wanted double daiths so I could wear spirals, but there was barely room for singles in my stupid ears. I’m jealous.

    I loooove how it looks. It goes really well with their anatomy 🙂

    Nice! I did something similar on a friend a while back in both her ears. I just like daith piercings in general.

    thanks for the kind words everyone, and this piercing is about two month old now.
