Cut Me Burn Me Make Me Beautiful

Tattoos are not the only form of skin art. Branding and scarification (when the skin is cut in ways that produce particular scar patterns) techniques have been around for a while but are now beginning to catch on in a big way.

Scarification has been around for about ten thousand years. Different tribes around the world use scars for beauty, and to signify different stages of life: In some Pacific Island tribes, scars were given to girls at puberty to show they were now able to bear the pain of childbirth.

If the idea of permanent branding or scars is a little too much, try a Henna tattoo in Marrakech. Renting apartments in Marrakech is one way to save on accommodation, freeing up more cash for body art experimentation.
