Introduce yourself!

Forum: BodyMods Group

A space for introductions~


I'll start:
Hi, I'm Hisui.  27, she/her.  I've always been super into body mods, and started piercing my face as soon as I turned 18 lol.  I had 6 lobe piercings by the time I was 15, but my mum cut me off after that.  I have about 13 piercings (I think) in my current set up, but I've retired 5 (most recent being my venom bites, still sad about taking those out).
I didn't get super into tattoos until my mid 20's, since those are a bit more permanent.  Right now I have 9 tattoos, two of which are larger and cover my forearms.  Eventually I want a coordinated bodysuit!
I don't have any of the more "extreme" mods at the moment, but I've always wanted my tongue split and a coin slot (cartilage punch) done.  Just need to save the money and wait for traveling artists to visit my city!

Anywho, that's me.  Nice to meet you.

Thanks for sharing!

Septum piercings are suuuuper easy, I got my double nostrils and septum in the same session.  Easy to heal too!

I can only afford one tattoo a year :c My artist charges $300/hr!

Hi, im Kira, 21, she/her.

I don't have much in terms of body mods, 3 chip implants in my hand (2xLeds that light up and a NExT that stores emergency data and i want to use for unlocking my car / front door).
Plus a small NFC Logo / wayfinding Mark tattoo on top of it. And a single snake bite, i think that's what it's called. 
I used to have a EMV payment implant but that grew out and i haven't gotten around to getting it back in. 
I've been interested in piercings for as long as I can remember and in "technical" implants since i saw someone getting a magnet in their finger. 
In the future id like to get my tongue split, ears pointed and more useful chips.

That's me pretty much, nice to meet you all!

Hi (: 

I have so many tattoos I lost count. But I have a full left sleeve, full rib piece on left side from armpit to butt cheek. A chest/shoulder piece, entire back of neck/shoulder area one, both tops of feet and a hand full of little random “treasure hunt” pieces. OH and I have my pubic mound tattooed … haha. 
Body mod wise I have 1inch ears. And Russ Fox follows me on IG…(weird flex right.)
I used to date a full time body mod artist, and I can 100% tell you who to stay away from in the mod industry. Safety is sexy. 
Xoxo

 Hi my name is Taiwan.

I’m 17
He/Him
USA

I’ve always been into body mods since a kid. My mom would always talk about the freakshow performers in Florida and how they would come every year. Ever since then I started to look up people with anomalies and taboo features. Then I saw that some ppl chose to have the anomalies and get them done surgically. I WAS HOOKED. I LOVE piercings!!!! I live in a religious family so you can imagine that backlash but idc. I can’t get pierced until I’m 18 but I’ve been wearing clip ons and paste ons to live out my dream lol. I also want my tongue split too……. Baby steps tho, that’s for the future.

Hello my name is Renn. And I use they/them pronouns. 


I love body modifications and have a few so far. I tend to change my mind a lot so I try to take my time in deciding what I want. 

I have five tattoos so far but one is basically trash. (That was my first stick and poke.) One of the others I also did. 

I have 11mm stretched lobes (1/2 inch goal size), a second lobe piercing on both sides and two cartilage piercings on my right ear. I also have snakebites and my left nostril pierced. 

In the near future I intend to get my septum and right nostril pierced.

(I also have plans for knuckle tattoos and a tongue piercing but those are a bit further out.) Honestly, I struggle with tattoos a bit more than piercings but there are just so many options.

I am also considering tightlacing. 

Its something I've always had an interest in but I recently started up in a new industry and might actually get to pursue it.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and feel free to friend me if you have the interest. Have a good day.

Hey, I'm Emma, she/her, 16 years old, and I currently have 13 piercings and counting. I'm the most pierced kid at my school and as of December 2022, I currently have 5 holes on both ears going from standard lobe to lower helix, my right nostril, and snakebites. I want to get a double upper helix on both ears, septum, navel, and hip piercings (not sure if I should do 90 degree surface bars or 4 microdermals, though).

Hello, I'm Megyn. 35. She/her. I go by MHinksy or Minksy on most channels.

I have a bunch of random tattoos, done either by myself, my colleagues, or artists from conventions.

I am a tattoo artist by trade, out of NW Illinois.

going to get the NExT implant, probably magnet and a few others as I go.

Basically, I managed to crawl my way out of general/office careers and finally have the freedom and flexibility to indulge in the many bodymods and artforms that i've loved since childhood and i'm playing catch up on that now.

hey :] i'm ghost/alex, he/it, 19

i have 7 piercings and a tattoo so far, with my next tattoo this month

currently stretching my ears and i wanna get to 0/00g

i've been into piercings and tattoos forever i think, and have been generally interested in heavier body mods since i found out abt them, although i don't know if i'd get any myself

i also think it'd be cool to work at a tattoo/piercing shop, although i'd probably be front of house as i'm not good at art [yet] and i hate needles lol - an apprenticeship could be cool tho!!

Piercings (and other body mods) are one of my special interests and fav topics lol, i could just yap and yap about them nonstop <3

I have 8 piercings so far: three lobes (L2 R1), nostril (L), industrial (L), labret, septum and eyebrow (R), labret’s still prb my fav one!!! Also my first piercing was two lobes, got them when i was 5-6yo!

Hi everyone. I'm KJ/Kyler (♀). I'm 22yrs old. I'm super obsessed with body mods, they are my favorite thing to talk and learn about. I have 13 piercings (Industrial, 4g stretched septum, double nostrils, rook, first lobes stretched to 1", second lobes, 2 helixes, tragus, conch). I want to finish off my face setup with mantis piercings and a couple of lip piercings, probably a vertical labret and medusa. 


I'm also interested in heavy mods. I got a  coinslot last year and I plan to get a conch punch as well as thumb spines (subdermal implants) in the next few years.


Add me if you have similar interests and feel free to message me abt body mods anytime!!

Hello!! I'm Theo or Thez, I use all and any pronouns, I'm 18 and I've been really interested in all sort of mods ever since I found out what they were! I remember being a child and constantly looking up tattoos or piercings or heavily moded people on Google graphics. Currently I only have five ear piercings and three face piercings, I'm trying to come up with a good setup to keep things nice and pretty, and I have two tattoos that I've gotten as gifts for my previous birthdays and I'm trying to work up the courage to text the tattoo artist I wish to get tatted by soon

My idol used to be that person who was trying to achieve an elf-like look, and they got their ears pointed and they were always wearing black scleras and they had platinum hair. I'm unfortunately planning to be a teacher or a translator in my life later on, so I can't be heavily moded myself, but I adore all kinds of radical decisions in one's appearance. And I want to try out some non-permanent things one day, like silver fang grills rather than getting my teeth sharpened. Nice to meet everyone!
