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.

Those aren’t cheek piercings!

…they’re Danae‘s 16ga dermal anchor cheeks (to avoid the complications of, say, biting the internal beads and chipping teeth like can happen with standard cheek piercings), done by Tone at Fallen Angel in Citrus Heights, CA.

    I think I am in love with this girl. Every picture of her I see just makes me appreciate her more. I want to get most of these things done and it’s just encouraging because she makes it look so elegant and beautiful.

    She is very cute. No ones septum is ever straight…hahaha. I feel like the microdermals are a really good idea cause I know real cheek piercings always leave deep marks. Does anyone else feel like the microdermals are not evenly spaced from her mouth? Possibly it’s the angle of the photo. I only have one nostril done and it kinda bothers me sometimes, I should get that done soon.
