ARGH, my last comment had grammatical mistakes in!
I was gonna say that I love red-headed guys…
haha i love being ginger and thank you x
how on earth does he kiss anyone?
Bournemouth UK is my original hometown, now i’m an apprentice piercer in Vernon, Canada.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just wanted to spread the mad love for my beloved hometown.
it looks awesome i love it ! and i want his hat haha
#53, I don’t know but he does it well
I like your lip plate very much. It looks great. I have had three labrets. I had to take the last one out because I had emergency gall bladder surgery. I had a lot of problems with the surgery. I was unconsious for 24 hours with a ventilator in my mouth. I really don’t want to get pierced for the fourth time. My last labret was 4 guage, and I had a two guage one ready for insertion. Good luck. Thank you for being an inspiration to bod mod people.
i want to know is he going bigger, and if so will he be pulling his bottom teeth? or has he already?
for some reason i think he looks odd which is strange because i’ve seen african women with lip plates and think it’s the most natural thing in the world…so hmm
I think that lip plate looks great .. wish I had the courage to do the same.
Are you calling a halt now … or still plan something even larger??
G.C.,
I love your lip plate! It’s one of the largest in the west. I think only Kali Baaba, the L.A. guru, has one bigger (about 4 inches in diameter) and he also now has an upper lip plate (about 2 inches) too. How big are you going to go? Four to five inches would look and feel awesome! An upper lip plate (like the Sara Kaba, Mousgou or Lobi) would be very nice too. I love the look of the Mursi, Suri (Surma), Kayapo, Suya and Sara. It’s unfortunate to see all the negative comments. If lip plates were common in our culture, these same people would be saying, “He looks naked without a plate!” “How can he eat without one?” “I would only kiss someone with a lip plate, unadorned lips are ugly.”
Keep on stretching!

ive seen this guy in parkstone. mi friends think it looks wrong. but each to their own
i think he rocks
I really respect him for going all-out for what he wants. Personally I think it looks great, and would dearly love to stretch my own labret a lot too – now a measly 4mm. But I’m constrained by my job and mainly by a complete lack of bottle.
You look great and I think the lip plate somehow belongs to your personality, ignore the negative comments!
Hey, this fascinates me! Could never imagine doing it myself but I think it can look brilliant and it really suits you. Well done 🙂
ouch! it looks amazing but i could never do that lol
ouch is all i can sayyy <333
@G.C. I totally saw you in The Inferno pub in Bournemouth and thought you looked like a guy I’d seen on BME, turns out you WERE the guy on BME and I just didn’t realise that you lived in Btown!
Respect to you sir! 😀
