BME: Body Modification Ezine

Celebrating body modification culture since 1994.

    Labret, bridge and septum done originally by Gigi of Kolo Body Arts Inc., also in Atlanta.

    Me attached to Spiral’s (of Psychotic Suspension) back.

    You may remember the photos of Jerome‘s facial injections that have been featured on BME and on the cover of the ModCon book as well as on various television shows.
