The tattoo on the right is of course an ASCII rose, and on the left is Curtis‘s username in a UNIX root command prompt. It’s by Shane Hart in Lawrence, KS, but Curtis emphasizes that the fading is because he was deployed with the US Army right after this was done.

The rarest piercing in the world?
Written by
I’ve seen a lot of unusual piercings over the last thirteen years. However, I think of all rare piercings, the rarest may well be the hymen piercing (among other things, most women who go for genital piercings are sexually active already). The example in this entry (click here for an unpierced before shot) was done by Ralf at Visavajara in Freiburg, Germany (one of my favorite towns in Germany), and it is only the second example of one that I’ve seen.
I am afraid I do not know the stories behind either of the two piercings… In the case the customer didn’t say why they wanted the piercing, and Ralf didn’t pry. I can think of a million interesting reasons for these, but I don’t know which of them it is.

Cuts across the eyes
Written by
There seems to be a recent uprise in the popularity of scarification, both “intentional” looking like this one (on hypnotik davzzz), and the rougher scars I’ve featured in the past, that cross the eye visually. This fresh example, done using skin removal, is by Efix at D-Markation in Quebec City, Quebec.
