J2′s Post-Injury Tattoos
Written by
J2, a BMX rider that was paralyzed after a spinal accident, has continued to represent the sport with tattoos since his injury. A catalog of his tattoos after swapping out his bike for an electric wheelchair, deeply intertwined with his life experiences:
- His first tattoo was, not surprisingly, a BMX rider.
- His second tattoo included two other sports he was involved in after his injury — snowboarding and skateboarding.
- His third piece, another passion — racing.
- His fourth tattoo was a spinal cord, representing his life changing injury.
- His fifth tattoo was a joker, which he got to represent himself, as jokers are there to entertain, and to do it with their own personal sense of style.
- His fifth and sixth tattoo sessions filled in some of the spaces between the tattoos with lighting — lightning was chesen because of his love of storms, and also because lighting and freak accidents can happen and strike anywhere.
- Next a sunrise/sunset was added behind the action sports tattoos, to symbolize both the ending of something, and also the hope for a new start.
- Finally, the smoke coming up from his vein and up his arm represents over fourteen years of using “nature’s most beloved healing plant”.
The tattoos were done by Miles Maniaci at Deluxe Tattoo in Chicago, IL.

Two Year Old Implants
Written by
Iguana Mike‘s implants survived his recent legal altercations, and seem to be doing quite well at two years of age (initially done by Shawn O’Hare at Fillmore Tattoo and Piercing in California). I have to admit that giant star implant in his forehead is really visually overpowering and I’ll bet is a little disconcerting in person as it’s so big!

Lighter Than Air Play Piercing
Written by
Bruna in Brazil wanted “something new”, so Max from Efeito’s Studio in Parana, Umuarama, Brazil did this variation on corset play piercing on her — they did nine rings to hold the balloons in a session reminiscent of a scene I posted back in 2006 also from Brazil.

Things You Should Not Do
Written by
Round plugs for stretched piercings evenly distribute pressure on all parts of a piercing. As much as they might look cool, non-round shapes — squares for example — place more pressure at the “points”, causing them to damage circulation or worse yet, actually cut into the tissue. Because tissue with reduced circulation loses feeling, this can happen without the wearer even being aware of it until it’s too late.
Nat found this out with her square plugs.

Are they getting popular?
Written by
I can’t imagine this is going to be a trend or anything, but I’ve seen a few more eyelid piercings lately, in addition to the one from Bulgaria posted a few days ago, this reader in North Carolina describes this as their favorite piercing.
In Tennessee I think they’re a little more cautious, at least in this horizontal placement — basically just a surface piercing on the eyelid — by Darby at Great American Tattoo Company in Kingsport.
