Hobosteve (previously: measure of a man) has odd piercings to match his odd tattoos, with this highly unusual “oral-nasal” piercing that goes from inside his nose to under his lip, like a “highbret” or something. It was done for him by Steve at Somatic in Long Beach.

Wow very original!
seriously… OUCH!? they do look very very cool though!
and yes they should be called steves!
Aaah somebody help me I have the squicks like NEVER before!
Is that weird of me? To blase right over every genital torture Shannon can throw at us, and feel like I want to curl up and squeal at something like this?
Oh, and ‘antenna piercing’ gets my vote. Just…please don’t show me them 🙁
Oh wow.
That is..neat.
I did one on my self about a year ago. I like using the name “ime” for it because I was the only one who knew about it and it was done just for myself.
As silly as it may sound, I’m thinking in the near future people are going to try and pierce through bone. Solid bone. Or drill tiny holes for piercings to go through them. Wait and see.
Those piercings up there make my nose tickle.
Fucking ouch!!! But amazing. 😀 Makes me want to sneeze.

…I totally agree! Can’t get my head around actually piercing that either!
pleae read comment #48.
please*
I think they should be called the “Luis”.
My ego isn’t so big to think they should be named after me. The only piercing that comes to mind that’s named after a person is a Monroe, and she was a celeb, I’m just a regular Joe.
Most are labeled for their anatomical place, ear, septum etc. I think this part of the face is called labionasal, so maybe it should be the labionasal piercing, or translabionasal.
What…how?
Luis: Don’t forget the Christina and the Madison!
Hey there. I have these piercings, a pair. I got them done in January 2010. I already have vertical lowbrets and was feeling round for somewhere else to pierce, and found there. My piercer from Durham said yeah why not, and we arranged a time. They didn’t hurt – at all. I had PTFE bars put through which are great to play with. I’ve had them over a year and I love them. I thought I was the first to get them, but obviously not. I’m 19 and want loads more!
