A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

  • Woof woof! Dog portrait tattoo!

    Thanks to Joy Rumore (IAM:the milkmaid) of Pure Body Arts in Brooklyn for sending in this picture of the tattoo she just did on IAM:crucifyeffigy (as well as a photo of her dog and the flash she made).

  • This is NOT ok!

    Thanks to IAM:HollywoodPiercer for sending in this picture of a twelve year old child who walked into his studio — her older sister had pierced her lip using an ear piercing gun and stud. In addition to obvious contamination risks if the gun had been used on other people, the lip would very likely swell over the stud and engulf it, necessitating professional intervention.

  • Pinup Tattoo Styles

  • Suspension, Calgary Style

    I think that Albertans especially will appreciate this photo from IAM:Holy Flesh of IAM:sicchic‘s suicide suspension… I like the juxtaposition of the city, the country scene, the muddy truck, and the serenity of the suspension itself.

  • Cleavage Play Piercing

    Thanks to Mai Mai for these shots of her playing with needles at a friend’s house in Gualeguaychu.
