Tattoo & Piercing

Video: Vans Warped Tour Extravaganza – Piercing Interviews Since our fans are always so eager to share with us, we thought that we’d we return the favor, so here’s a little peak at what the BodyCandy staff has been up to. In this delightfully rock-tastic vid you’ll see us hanging out at the Vans Warped Tour and soaking up the sunshine. We got to talk to a host of awesomely pierced and psyched up festival goers, including Joey Biagas, the force behind self-purported one man band “Setting Sunrise.” Here’s what our staffers had to say about it: Lyndzi says: When […]

Video: Tiffany’s Cheek Piercing – Up Close and Personal Dimples are adorable, and if you’re not lucky enough to be born with natural cheek dimples you can now get them by having your cheeks pierced. My best friend Tiffany has wanted to get her cheeks pierced for years. She currently has multiple facial piercings including snakebites, septum, double nostril, and her Monroe. She is a piercing veteran, and was fully aware and ready to take on the possible challenges of getting her dimples done. This region of your face is home to blood vessels, nerves, and the saliva producing parotid […]

Warped Tour: BodyCandy Gets off the Wall with Another Staple of Summer It doesn’t really feel like summer no matter how many times I’ve hit the pool or enjoyed a day of sun tanning until the Warped Tour comes through. If you’re not aware, Warped Tour is the Vans sponsored concert event that runs a nationwide tour packed to the brim with as much music and good times as a bunch of punks on the road can muster! With headliners this year like Paramore, Jack’s Mannequin, A Day To Remember and Pepper, there’s a band and a sound there for […]

Wait Until You See the Whites of Their Eyes It’s official; it is the creepiest time of the year. That means the celebration of the weird and horrific, the twisted and shocking. Typically this celebration only lasts a few nights around the days of the 31st, but this is a warning on why you might think you’re seeing a blood sucker long after this Halloween. Sure, we’ve seen the record holders’ for most piercings on a face, or on a body. We have seen the people with more metal on them than Optimus Prime. We’ve seen a man cover his […]

Waiting for Forever: Finally Time for the Prom! Hey, seniors! Our classes are wrapping up, we’re reviewing for exams, we’re making our plans for next year, and of course, we’re dying to get out of school. Senioritis is kicking in, hard. Unless you’re like me, and senioritis was at its maximum on the first day of school. I’m pretty sure everyone is just about ready to drop everything, call it a year, and have the best summer ever. At least once a day, I say “I just wanna sleep. Wake me up on the first day of summer vacation.” But […]

Ways to Wear it: Heart Closure Rings Chances are if you enjoy a healthy dose of online time every week, you’ve seen some pretty neat piercings and jewelry around the web. Something like these maybe: They’re heart closure rings, and they’re astoundingly versatile. These babies can be gently pried open and slipped on like an illusion ring, to give the look of a piercing where there isn’t one, but the real fun begins for those who have multiple ear piercings. Here are just a few places that a closure ring can go: They can also be worn in lobe piercings, […]

We Heart Body Mod, Piercing and Art: Color Psychology Everyone can probably tell by now how much the team here at BodyCandy loves color, but did you know that our color preferences can vary by region, gender, and even age? The study of this is called “color psychology,” and you’d never believe what some colors can do. Take blue for instance. Soft blue or teal hues are universally the most popular, with an estimated 35 percent of American citizens choosing blue as their favorite color. It’s easy to see why, since the shade is associated with competency, even-headedness, calm, collectedness, […]

We All Go Nuts for Doughnuts There’s nothing quite as decadent as a nice fresh doughnut. The texture, the smell, the ridiculously sweet glaze that melts in your mouth… It’s easy to see why it’s become a graphic icon in girl world, alongside the cupcake, ice cream cone, and lollipop. I mean, even if you eat it at breakfast, dessert is still dessert, right? So in the spirit of exploring the more saccharine side of our fashion sensibilities, it’s time to break out all the doughnuts we can find. Pastry look good as a t-shirt print or on a hair […]

We Heart Body Mod, Piercing and Art: Doing the Body Electric This Winter season, we’re craving a mega dose of super hot color, and we think you’ll agree that neon is where it’s at in November. One of our fave super hot hues (as seen at Swarovski, Tom Binns, Marc Jacobs, and others) is the sunny and superfly sweet neon yellow. Though we’re open to being blue too! In the best of ways, of course. Plus, rocking electric blue puts a little get-up-and-dance in those dreary Fall days. Though we heart the lovely body art of an all-over blue, a […]

We Heart Body Mod, Piercing and Art: Getting Down and Nerdy Ready for a little chit chat? We heart a super vocabulary boost, complete with all of those nerdy words. Do you heart plaid as much as we do? This school year, geek chic is ready to blow up larger than life, and fun and funky tartan is the ultimate nerdy right hand man. Whether or not you ditched your glasses for contacts, there’s sure to be a little fashion geek left underneath the surface that pines like we do for a pair of signature prescription shades. Going to a […]
