Bridge Piercing

                        This ones fun but risky. The Bridge piercing also known as an Erl is a surface piercing that goes horizontally across the bridge of  nose. Best jewelry for this is a small curved barbell, a strait barbell would rise the risk of rejection, which is high anyway due to people not having a lot of flesh there for the piercing to grab onto. Contrary to the rumour this piercing has never been reported in making anyone go cross eyed, the piercing should not be more noticeable to you as your nose, if it is the barbell is probably to long. Bridge piercing is not considered to be a very painful piercing, it is very quick, but remember everyone's pain tolerance is different. Very fun, but risky, that's is the bridge piercing.

Corset Piercing

         This is vanity at its best. Corset pierceings, some times called ladder piercing are series of hoop surface piercings, in two equal vertical lines. The piercings are placed where the eyelets would be if you were wearing a corset, there is really no limit to how many or how little you have or where you have them. Ribbon, most commonly,is then laced through the hoops and tied in a bow, though sometimes people will put rope or chain in. This is only a temporary use, if you keep the ribbon in for too long the piercings will not heal properly, they will move about the skin and reject from the body, most times leaving awful scars. Most common places for these are on your back, on your side, just under the ribcage, or from the base of your neck to near the end of your shoulder blades. Usually this is seen on women but has lately been seen on the men, on the front of there necks. There is vanity at is best!

Neck Tattoos

                    This is one for those who like to stand out. Most people really want or have a tattoo, the most common regions for tattoos are the shoulders, lower back, sleeves, or ankles, but this is a way to be noticed. Neck tattoos are mostly placed on the back of the neck but are also seen on the side or sides of your neck but sometimes put on the very front coming around both sides, or even connecting to a existing chest tattoo. These tattoos are not for the weak they are known for pain, the skin on say the back of the neck is thinner than than skin on your arm or back, there is also little padding or fat between the skin and the bone which makes the process that more painful. The healing time for these tattoos is longer than others, the reason being that the continuous motion of the head delays healing and causes the tattoo to scab quicker. Most tattoos have a meaning like a spider tattoo means creativity or a leaf tattoo meaning joy and rebirth, in society today people have come to the conclusion that a neck tattoo means the same thing on everyone, "I am not getting a job"! This is a great way to stand out!
