Is it just me, or do these top o’ the breast microdermal stars by Damien Caskey at Los Angeles’s RicRoks Tattoos seem vaguely reminiscent of the type of projects done by Sean Dowdell and crew? Not to suggest at all that Caskey is copying them or anything of the sort—I mean it as an observation of how microdermals really seem to be increasingly worn in an almost “fashion-y” kind of way. I’m a big fan of these kinds of microdermal project, so whether they’re becoming “mainstream” or not, I know I’d like to see more of them. And hey, there’s another photo after the jump! What a country.

those sure are some interesting pants.

first off, they look great….
secondly, i agree with ya…. i guess people find out that microdermals less painfull than ‘normal’ piercings, and somehow they seem more acceptable… if that makes any sense…. plus, they are easier to make a design like the one above….
i’m talkin out my ass again… i’ll leave…

they’re only less painful because there’s no afterburn like with most piercings. it’s like gettin holepunched!
i think they’re more acceptable ’cause people aren’t sure what they are yet. anyone i’ve showed have looked at me like i’m nuts once i explained what it actually was. and my mother would react alot more strongly to a microdermal than another piercing!

I find it funny and a little ironic that mainstream society seems to be accepting something that was considered experimental and dangerous not too long ago even in the piercing community…
Not saying this never happens – I know it isn’t exactly rare – I just find it funny every time.

I think it’s because you don’t see where it goes in and comes out. To someone not in the know, it’s something on the skin rather than it it, which is apparently less icky.

oh holy god that will SNAG i have one at the base of my neck and that gives me enough jip as it is :s i worry about the logevity of microdermals. I absolutely adore mine and want more but already have issues making sure it’s clean and not building up gunk behind it…

I don’t really have any feelings either way for the project.. but I do feel that the pictures are unnecessarily trashy, I mean, unless there are more ‘arty’ ones or whatever where the stars are actually visible straight on or something, in the set.. really, underwear, heels and a baseball hat? oh well.

My two sternum microdermals give me enough trouble during sex, I can’t imagine these being very convenient :/

i listened in on a conversation between two teenage girls at Chapters the other day, they were talking about getting microdermals….of course they didn’t use the word because they had no idea what the fuck they were called, and they wanted chinese symbols tattooed on them…lol…ya, microdermals are definitely mainstream.
and this girl is gross

I’ve had a microdermal on my sternum for almost two years now, and let me tell you, I still get some horrified and disgusted looks when I explain what it is and the procedure. It was much worse two years ago, when I got stopped and questioned in just about every store and even restaurant I went in, but it’s still nowhere near “mainstream” here in Florida. I will add that no one has ever been directly offensive about it to me, though of the people who have expressed interest/a desire to get one, only two have ever known what they were even called. I think that with the internet, the body mod culture begins to feel like a smaller and more accepted place than it may actually be.
That said, I’m not a fan in the slightest about this project, and feel in general that microdermal/surface piercing “projects” look cluttered and unappealing.

hahaha those shorts are like the least classy shorts I have ever seen.
As for the microdermals they look sweet, but good god damn I can’t imagine how incredibly annoying they must be. I had just too surface bars in my chest and they got caught on everything!

i agree with #13.
these pictures would have been better with someone who doesn’t look like they just hopped off the pole, payed some dirty trucker in a blowjob to drive her back to her trailer where someone decided to pierce her and take some pictures.
but hey, i’m all for making this mainstream and whatnot. but this picture looks like it’s trying to make microdermals trendy more than anything.
