Here’s a very unusual horizontal lip piercing done in the upper lip (usually they’re lower lip with a surface bar, not that even that placement is common) by the good folks at California Tattoo in Sacramento. If I had to guess I’d say it wasn’t kept that long, although you never know — but I think with this jewelry and placement rejection will be very likely (and speedy).

That said, you never know, and I’ve seen far less stable things heal.

I’m all for people making their own DIY body jewelry, but I kind of think this plug made by IAM:busichildfg out of fimo is a little off-putting because of the color choices… When I first saw it as a thumbnail I actually thought it was an injury! Still, freaking out the plainskins is always fun.
