So I’m thinking to myself, ok, this eyeball tattooing stuff is the craziest stuff I’m going to post in a while. I wasn’t even going to post any more tonight, and then I see this piercing come across our desktops and I’m just blown away…
CERVICAL PIERCING?!?!
Definitely one of the wildest things I’ve seen quite in a while. All I can say right now is, wow, I’m really surprised to see this, and it takes a fair amount to surprise me! This was done, DIY, all by touch, by Ashley Crawford at Custom Art in Norwich, England, using a 2mm x 12mm (ie. 1/2″ 12ga) titanium curved barbell.

I’m guessing that the body’s pretty resilient to damage to the cervix and this will probably heal fairly quickly — hopefully Ashley will keep us updated on how it goes. Cervix piercing… Just when you think everything that can be pierced has already been pierced!
Edit/Update #1: From the comments, our resident doctor writes, “Technically difficult but fairly low risk. Probably healed crazy fast too. The cervix is remarkably resilient and can take a lot of abuse. Being very mucosa, it’s a fast healer.”
