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.

  • “No Regrets”

    You know, I’ve been seeing more guys with facial tattoos and beards, and I really think the combination improves each. This facial tattoo is by Mike Gutowski at Divine Machine Tattoo in Buffalo, NY.

  • Simple Facial Tattoo Work

    I blew the lines out a bit because I edited the photo on the wrong computer (it’s solid in real life), but I quite like Bronte‘s facial tattoo, which you can see in more detail on her IAM page — it’s sort of a mix between street punk tattooing and something a bit more delicate? Applied by Jarrod Richardson at Psycho Clown in Ft. Worth, TX.

    PS. More tattooed faces, heads, and necks.

  • Biggest Nostril Piercings in the World?

    I’m going to make the claim that Pauly Unstoppable has not only the largest nostril piercings of anyone living in Indiana, but I’d say in Western culture as a whole, and I’m also going to claim that he has the largest nostril piercings of any living person.

    What do you think? Know anyone bigger? Pauly’s are currently 1 1/8″ each, done in ebony with nice inlays, made to match the large plugs he wears in his ears.

    I recently (BMEfest) got to see them in person and they look amazing. His nose is an entirely new shape, and it’s quite stunning… and whether you like the look or not I hope you agree that he deserves a lot of credit for the courage to go ahead and choose an aesthetic that’s radically outside the mainstream.

  • I miss Mexico…

    Mars Atack (from Kaustika) reminds me why I moved there… la playa!

  • Facial Floral Tattoos

    I like these facial cherry blossom tattoos by Ryan Almighty at Almighty Studios in Jamestown, NY. It really amazes me though how “normal” things like this have become from where we were at ten years ago. I wonder what change we’ll see over the next decade?

  • Two of my favorite tattooed faces

  • 13 Lucky Stars Facial Tattoo

    The expression on her face is priceless! It’s like she just woke up after a night of hard partying, looked in the mirror, and discovered she’d gotten tattooed. The work is by Tattoo Joe at Physical Grafitti in Bridgeport, CT (I’ve mentioned Tattoo Joe‘s work before).

  • It’s never too late to tattoo your face!

    Age 55, done at Studio Blitzz in Groningen, The Netherlands.

  • Tattooed Faces Meet In Prague

    Some photos from the Prague Tattoo Convention, c/o my friend Bastard in St.Petersburg, Russia, and here’s another closeup of the guy on the right…

  • Oh, how far we have come…

    …when the Lizardman is cracking jokes in teen magazines.

    I wonder if they paid him, or just stole the picture like many magazines do. Anyway, Julie was given this by a girl she babysits because “you have tattoos so you might know him.” Ah, good, we’re now a misunderstood size-underestimated pseudo-ethnic group. Heh.
