Scarification is the next big thing in the tattoo world--although clearly it is not a tattoo. Scarification refers instead to the practise of using scar tissue naturally produced by the body to form designs, pictures or words into the skin. These scars are most often formed by cutting or branding the skin.

I have tried to include scarification on all stages here for your pleasure. As laws vary from place to place, in some places the practice of scarification may not be fully legal.

I hate to say it, but the fern looks really amazing.

If I could get a precast "60" and heat it up and just have the instant searing of my flesh, I think I would prefer this over the pain of a thousand pin pricks. Am I on the right track here? Still unsure about the location of the scar/tat. Forearm? Forehead? Foreskin?

@Cowbag! What? You were boo-hooing for a couple days. It was all an act just to get attention? I'm not looking for a subsidy from J, unless he demands that TrendHunter be part of the deal. :)
