The very talented intergalactic traveler Anders the Piercing Guy checks in with these recent (and rare) vertical lowbrets, done with 1-1/8″ straight barbells. These are the first such piercings Anders has done since 2005, he says, but one won’t find oneself in much better hands than his. Best of luck with the healing process, fella.
A couple more angles, after the jump.

Pretty striking face.

Now, I’m not one to say what does or doesn’t necessitate a ‘transformation’ of oneself, but If losing a girlfriend, a job, and a car causes one to feel the need to ‘transform’ oneself… then this guy wasn’t right to begin with. Perhaps his parents didn’t teach him how to cope with loss. But dreadlocks, piercings, and selling all of your material possessions as a way to dissociate yourself from your old life isn’t going to address the root problem which is that the guy doesn’t know how to be his own person without a girlfriend, job, or car. Sad. But if he’s gone off and done something stupid, the best you can hope for is that he comes back saying, “Fuck, won’t do something that stupid again”.

Are we talking about the same person that I pierced, tourist from europe(country withheld) travelling around Australia?, I have had email contact with this person for over a month before we did the procedure, he seemed pretty stable to me .
#19 you are right regarding the procedure

if he really is MIA right now, you ask if anyone knows where he is, you don’t jot down his life’s problems on the internet for everyone to read. it’s rude and not your place to tell everyone what’s going on with him, even if you are a good friend :/

They go in front of the teeth through the chin tissue
And I call bs too
Dreads take over a year to mature like that and they never mature like that using wax because they rot out

“There’s no way his skin is going to be ok with that much constant horizontal pressure. Could still ‘heal’ after it rejects (for lack of a better word) through that little bit of skin under pressure…” It is not a surface piercing….

I love the grammar of 14 and 15. haha
As far as the whole reinventing thing goes, why not? Doesn’t everyone do that from time to time? And sometimes a particular event makes you take a step back and get a new perspective on your life. I pressed reset a few times myself after getting really screwed over by people that I thought were really good friends, etc.

I still don’t believe this story. You can see that the upper 5cm of his dreads look different than the rest. He must have had these for at least half a year.
And I think if somebody really was worried about him or missed him he would have just written that and not told the whole world aubout his problems and the music he listens to while smokin pot…
Or would he?

I know someone who has these lowbrets and they said it was the most painful piercing they ever had. Then they stretched them up to an 8. I think they’re a very cool piercing but I’m kinda too wimpy for this one. 😉
