What's up with this trend?

I hope the people that do this are committed, because I don't think that's growing back.

Is this new?

And doesn't that apply to tattoo-bearers as well?

Speak up Elphie, CaptMorgan, and the other tattoo-sporting freaks! :P

yeah, but it's all on the face and stuff. :)

I think it's relatively new. Even in Austin, I only saw this on one or two people a few years ago. I see people in Indianapolis with it now.

Just doesn't seem wise unless you have a pretty good grasp on where your life is headed. I watch Miami Ink from time to time, and they're very reluctant to tattoo people's heads or faces, because they don't think people have thought it through.

By the way I saw this guy at Central Market in Austin once:

His name is Enigma. His wife (now ex) here was with him too. Her name is Katzen, and she has tiger stripe tattoos all over. He doesn't have them in this pic, but he also has horn implants in his forehead. From what I understand they're made of coral, which will actually grow and attach itself to the skull.

I don't get the ear gaging thing. I think it looks stupid. I'm fine with earrings and I love tattoos. I love having tats(got 4 myself), but tats that are on your face are pretty ridiculous.

Look at that guy though. Without all that stuff he might be the dullest looking dude on the planet. That friar mullet hairstyle isn't doing anything for him either.

That dude needs a good beaten. He also needs a better barber who doesn't believe in mullets. #-o

You may have a very good point.

Having a nice look at his nose cartilage sure makes him more exciting to look at.
