Fresh coin slot! I am so impressed with the stitches, too. So much neater than what a doctor did for an injury in my hand a few years ago! Will post my healing journey after it is fully healed.

Also ignore the angry daith bump, it is only a couple months old and despite my best efforts and a piercing pillow I keep catching myself rolling over on it in my sleep.

I got my labret scalpelled & stretched from 2g to 1/2" yesterday. lip is mad swollen but i wanted to share this so bad!

i traveled to Old Traditions Body art in IL to see Bryan Gutierrez & he did AMAZING!

I've been wanting a coin slot for the past five years. I was recommended a body mod artist by a friend and need to make the appointment. However, (and I've been looking through earlier posts) my husband keeps saying if I get it it's going to get damaged and stretched over time. From all the research I've done I understand that it's cartilage and it shouldn't stretch. I'm not interested in heavy rings for it and I wanted a relatively small one. I really just want a stack of plain rings that go with the rest of my jewelry since I basically never rotate my jewelry anymore. It's also a good way to get my jewelry count up since I think it's fun to have one piece of jewelry represent one year of my life.

I know I'm letting him get to me about it, but it's going to be expensive and I don't want to regret it years down the line. I don't have any other body mods but I do have over 23 healed piercings ( and two more piercings I need re-pierced after they closed because I lost the jewelry during an unplanned surgery.) So I do already look moderately alternative.

Please excuse my white tongue I just ate 🫢

That's right, I want to give in to an energy drink that I have in my fridge. I am 7 days post op from a tongue split and have lost most of my stitches already. I only have about 4 left, but I'll take it out tomorrow, hopefully.

It is a zero-calorie monster, the Ultra Punk one.

I tried an Alani for the first time before my tongue split the Witch's Brew one and have been thinking of it ever since.

I have a food syringe, and there may or may not be an attempt tonight. I wonder if anyone has drunk one being 6-7 days post op.

Hi!!! I’m from the East Coast, USA. I’ve been wanting to get my tongue split for YEARS, can anyone point me into the direction in where to get it done/how or Who to go to, and some pointers or what to expect! 🖤 dms are open, please be kind 🖤 thank you :3

I’m considering getting my tongue split by Chai at calm body mod since he’s closest to me and reputable (I’m Swedish). Has anyone gone to him? How was your experience, the process and healing?

Some scars from years ago and how they look now, in the fresh photos you can see some older scars that healed a while back, I think that all those scars were done without anesthetics so they were fun

i feel like this question has been asked a billion times before, but i figured i'd make it a billion and one. i am having my consultation for a conch punch tomorrow and i want to know everything i need to know beforehand, and i'd also like to know what questions i should be asking my piercer. i am a side sleeper and i toss and turn at night - should i invest in a travel pillow? i prefer to follow the litha method with my piercings - is that okay for punches too? tell me everything

I don’t actually have any body mods myself, unless you count colored hair.

For the last 7 years I’ve been wearing those scarecrow Halloween vampire teeth daily. For lack of a better way to put it, I feel more like a person when I wear them. I’m more confident, my stutter lessens and I just feel more me.

That said, I hate those things and I need to move on. I can’t wear them when I eat but they’re thing and I am blind so I’m always leaving them places. They rub up against my gums when I talk and it drives me insane. After wearing them for a few hours I turn evil because they’re stressing me out so much.

Given that I’ve worn these for 7 years despite being annoyed by them, I think it’s time I just bite the bullet and get composite bonding done. I’ll be doing my own reading up on it, but I also want to hear from people who have had them. I have some specific questions but I also would love to hear about your general experience.

- Have you changed your sleeping or eating habits due to your fangs?

- I’ve read that they last about 7 years. How are your’s holding up and how long have you had them?

- How bad is the yellowing? Especially if you regularly have coffee? As I mentioned before, I’m blind and blindness comes with about 800 sleep disorders and no treatments so sometimes truly stupid amounts of caffeine is the only thing between me and passing out at work.

- How often do you get them worked on if at all?

I am interested in getting into hooked/ pierced suspension but the piercings seem more surgical and idk where to start or what to even look for. Does anyone have any tips? I’m in the PDX area if that helps at all.

I want a unique subcision

Has anyone seen a deep subcosion starting near the balls and only going half way up the shaft leaving the head Intact?

This something i want but would like to see one first and find someone with experience

Super stoked on how this project is coming along. Love my piercer John at deep roots Seattle

At some point, I read about and saw photos of a procedure where the flesh between two stretched lobes is scalpelled and repaired to connect them into a single, larger opening. Does anyone have more information on something like this? When I try to research it, I just get results on reconstruction. I have 20mm firsts and 10mm seconds, and I have reached my limit on how large I can stretch my seconds because I had them pierced so close initially. The solution my heart desires is a procedure to combine my firsts and seconds lol.

My tongue split is on the short side, as I wanted it done that way… though I am lowkey considering going back for a deeper split eventually. We’ll see! I’m super happy with it.

I got this done back in May this year. Healing was honestly smooth sailing, I felt very lucky considering all of the stories I’ve read where people have had a rough time.

Thanks for looking!:)

Hello everyone!

Im here for your guy´s experties on were i can go to get my earlobe scalpt in belguim, one little problem sadly is, I rely on public transport and cannot get any further than Antwerp.

So a little background story

I got my ear incorrectly stratched like 9 or 10 years ago, and do to incorrect stratching i ended up getting scar tissue, so i whant to remove it, And maybe center the hole more so i can go as big as posseble.

Any options, info and tips are appreciated!

Blastovers done by Danny Blackheart at Gnar Street, Nottingham

It’s currently Monday night and I’m sitting here with my fully intact ear with butterflies in my stomach! I get nervous before everything, so this is normal. I’ve gotten tattoos and piercings, had surgery while awake, and stuffed my own incisions with gauze before. In theory this should be within my wheelhouse but I’m still feeling a bit “aaaaaah”

I met with my artist the other day and they’re wonderful, we did a little anatomy consultation ahead of the appointment which is on Friday. A close friend has gotten so much work done with this artist and offered high praises, and their portfolio is clean and lovely with fresh and healed photos.

All signs are pointing to yes! Any tips for the uninitiated? I think I’m just extra nervous because this will be my first real body mod outside of the normal things. I’m used to discomfort, pain, wound care, and all that fun stuff.

Thank you lovely folks :)

What the title says. I’m based in the UK so very aware that finding a reputable scarification artist will be near impossible, but I’m willing to travel to mainland Europe for scarification. Who is recommended and where are they based these days?

Hello,

So, I want to get fangs but I know my veryyyyy small underbite may be an issue (one canine tip presses up onto another tooth when I bite down). Would I need to get braces first to fix everything to be able to get them? I'd prefer getting everything in perfect order anyways.

Thanks!
