The best thing about being an amputee? Your chance to rock some seriously cool tats, that's what!
I've been fortunate enough not to have any external part of my body chopped off*. However, if I ever were to lose an arm or a leg (or anything else in between), I'd get me something along the lines of one of these.
If you can't hide it, make it a feature!

Gavin Paslow, a 39 year old security guard from Kent, swindled benefit money to fund operations to make himself look more like the Devil - complete with fangs, a forked tongue and horns.
Paslow has changed his name to Diablo Delenfer (or devil from the inferno) and said he needed to carry out 'body modifications' to look more like Lucifer.
He's pleaded guilty to 7 offences after defrauding the government of £3,552 in housing, council tax and income support benefits.
Paslow said: 'It was a stupid mistake and I'm really sorry. I'm paying it all back. I really regret it. But I'm pleased with my look so far, but what I really want is a tail. And not just a synthetic one - a proper, organic tail.'
He says he is not satanic but just addicted to body modification.
Currently Paslow has two domed implants made from hard Teflon on either side of his forehead that serve as horns, a forked tongue and fangs. He also has 29 tattoos covering most of his upper body and wears green lizard-like contact lenses.
Last year he also had an operation to make his ears pointed at the tips, but it wasn't a success. He plans to have it redone.Gavin Paslow, a 39 year old security guard from Kent, swindled benefit money to fund... more

And no! Its not because he has a little pointy, forked tongue or horns on his head, but because... gasp! He's a benefit cheat!
Dad-of-two Gavin Paslow (who has re-named himself Diablo Delenfer) was found to have swindled 3 and a half thousand pounds to pay for all his devilish trimmings.
So behold people of Great Britain; this is what your hard-earned cash has paid for. Better than the Millennium Dome?
Beelzebub has also been slapped with a curfew that bans him from roaming the streets at night; but the article doesn't specify whether this is for any criminal reason, or just because he would scare too many people.
Lucifer isn't finished with his make-over either; he says he wants a proper, organic tail, not one that you can buy at a fancy dress shop. He is currently single.And no! Its not because he has a little pointy, forked tongue or horns on his head,... more

Apparently, people are tattooing their scleras (white part of eye) and making them a different solid color. After years of blinking, you'd expect the person with the tattoo in their eyeball to go somewhat go blind. But it's a new "fad", it's different, it's a risk, a "hardcore" thing to do! NO. Any type of body modifaction in/on the SKIN is enough for me. But people SEE things differently, I guess. We'll see if that lasts.

This series of incredible temporary body modifcation devices was designed by Kye Ok Kim and showcased at Seoul Design Week 2007. They allow those who want to express themselves through artistic body work to do so via light, print or paint.
The light-emitted brooches project patterns onto the skin while the other trinkets I think are meant to put patterns in your skin, kind of like embossing yourself. You know how you wake up with pillow case wrinkle face? It’s kind of like that, but in a fashionable way. Or I guess you could use makeup for the imprint.

Today's bride-to-be "wants everything to be perfect," says Heidi Allen,"They want their hair, nails and makeup all professionally done. They want a beautiful dress. And I hear from their mothers that they are almost all obsessed with their weight." Many customers order their dresses a size or two smaller than what they currently wear, she says, because they're determined to be thinner by the big day. Some go much further than that. "I've had to send some brides who ordered a size 12 to get alternations to make their dress a size 20," Allen says. "Luckily, I know a seamstress who's a miracle worker. But it's absolutely ridiculous, the denial I see in the salon." Ironically, she says, it's often the women with the least to lose who lose the most. "A lot of thin girls get obsessed with being even thinner," she says, "and end up coming in for their fittings looking like a rack of bones."

Double Eyelid Surgery is the most popular cosmetic procedure in Japan because it promises a more "western" looking eye. But for some young girls who don't wanna go under the knife, these stickers provide an easy alternative. These stickers are advertised as being "great for Halloween" but are they just another tool used by many girls to reject their ethnicity?
