Interesting lip-tip piercing done using custom jewelry on Krista by Chris Holepunch at Akron Ink (formerly Pain Hate Pain Studios) in Akron, Ohio. I’m not sure if it’s going to have rejection issues because the inner lip is pretty soft, but I quite like “mystery piercings” like this that confuse people who haven’t been around much piercing.

Iroquois Tribal
Written by
It’s fairly rare to see First Nations tattoos (Ryan is the only person I know with one in person), so it was nice to get this picture. Bill sends in this tattoo of Iroquois style work (with a little bit of Europe tossed in), done by Justin at Sleepy Hollow Studios in Welland, Ontario.

What is that held in by? Hair?
Written by
Quite a while ago (over two years ago actually), Kivaka sent me these shots of people who came into his shop with rejecting piercings, at least one of them completely unaware that there was even a problem!

I guess there’s more than one puzzle guy!
Written by
“Long story,” he writes. What’s funny is that the Enigma‘s puzzle tattoos, if I remember right, are actually a rather short story! Anyway, enjoy today’s updates here and BME as well, and I’ll have more tomorrow including more historical pieces (I just didn’t have time today, sorry).
Oh yeah, and for those of you who are prudish, a warning: I think there may be more dirty pictures in today’s update than usual. Not that I expect many complaints.
