Arm Spines

Steve — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 18:38:38 +0000

New Arm Spines, for everyone who has been asking. Just produced in time for NYC and Europe. Seven graduated sizes. Uber flexible, so they can fit any size arm, forearm or upper arm, and the smallest one can even be used as a penile implant.

Letter of Apology to Lukas Zpira

Steve — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 05:58:07 +0000

Many years ago I thought Lukas Zpira had betrayed my trust. There was an individual who told me that Lukas had done so. Unfortunately, instead of speaking to Lukas about the situation, I immaturely shut him out. Lukas attempted on several occasions to e-mail me, to try to understand why I was upset, but I would see the e-mail and delete it. I have told a handful of people about Lukas betraying me, which I’m sure damaged his reputation. While in Europe this past September, I decided to put my grudge aside and talk to Lukas. I told Lukas why I felt betrayed. He was upset and frustrated because the situation never actually happened. Through additional individuals I have since had irrefutable proof that Lukas did not betray my trust. My stubborn-headed past rationalization of the situation damaged Lukas and the body modification industry. Lukas is a brilliant body modification artist. We have collaborated on projects in the past, and I am sure I destroyed and delayed many other possible collaborations with him and others.

Lukas, I apologize for being immature in this situation and hurting you. I hope you accept my apology although I understand if you do not. I would like to thank Samppa for shedding light on the situation. I do learn from mistakes, and do not intend to repeat this one again.

Thank you,

Steve Haworth

New Implants

Steve — Mon, 03 May 2010 13:58:31 +0000

Just in time for APP and Hell City, Steve is unveiling new implant designs.

If you would like to book an appointment, please contact us so we can get you scheduled.

For everyone who has asked to be implanted with suspension hooks, Steve has come up with a silicone way of doing so. These are modeled from and with the exact same dimensions as an 8 gauge suspension hook.

Next is this elegant starfish design, two inches in size.

And finally, new “brass knuckle” silicone implants – one life-sized for chest placement (4 and 3/4 by 3 inches) and another smaller design more appropriate for hands (2 and 1/2 by 1 and 1/2 inches).

Steve’s hand shows the relative sizes of the two implants.

Dani Danger’s recent mods.

Steve — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 02:51:27 +0000

Dani has been getting modified for over ten years now. Two of her more recent modifications include transdermal antenna as well as ear pointing. Below I have included a picture of both left and right ears after pointing and one before picture in the middle to show the contrast. Danny has also had her tongue split and of course her cross implant in the center of her chest.

Katri’s ear pointing

Steve — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 01:17:58 +0000

Katri had me point her ears while on our European trip. She says these photos were taken approximately three weeks after the work was completed. The vast majority of the work I do is done while traveling so it’s not often than I have the opportunity to see/photograph the fully healed work. I ask everybody if they would please e-mail me photos and they always say they will but unfortunately not very many people actually do. Katri sent me the great photos below, thank you Katri!

A different kind of spiritual adornment

Steve — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 07:14:04 +0000

While traveling abroad I had the honor of doing a scarification piece on a Lutheran Priest. I have done lots of work on religious figures in the past, but these were usually small and places that were easily concealed. CooKie spoke with the Priest about the idea and concepts of the design as well as the creation of the design and the CooKie did a beautiful job. Likewise the priest also did it beautiful job of being very calm during the work. Ironically this piece is done in Calm body piercing in Stockholm in which Chai and his partner graciously allowed us to use their studio. As you know I very rarely put up pictures of fresh work, I prefer healed work and am looking forward to getting a healed photo of this piece but I thought the story behind it was worth the premature post.

He can disarm you with this looks or his hands!

Steve — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 06:42:24 +0000

J.D. is a very accomplished piercer, and also very Irish hence three leaf clover. We designed a 3 leaf clover using 3 1/2 hearts silicone glued together. This picture is about 3 1/2 months old. Oh did I mention he’s also a professional martial arts expert? I really like the piece and I really like the fact that a professional fighter properly wrapping a 3-D modification during martial arts training does not hamper or impede his lifestyle. One of the reasons why I am a proponent of cast silicone in the back of the hand. We also did some scarification on his face and forehead.

Polished stainless Gilson rig.

Steve — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 04:05:09 +0000

I don’t mean to brag but being able to have your entire set up rig, hooks and links fit into the same sterilization bag is pretty cool. I do understand the necessity for everything to be disassembled to be properly sterilized I just have everything assembled to show the point. The polished rigs will be up on my eBay site around the middle of next week and will be $60. The long twisted shackles in the picture with the pink rig retail for about $21 each and are rated for 1320 pounds each. The short twisted shackles in the stainless rig picture retail for about $12 each but are rated for 500 pounds each. I will not supply the twisted shackles but I will direct people to web sites that carry them. I have the hell city tattoo convention this weekend and then we leave for Europe on the 14th so I have a lot of work on my plate before I leave. I will not be able to take care of any powder coating until I get back from Europe on the seventh of October.

East meets West

Loran and Alyssa are visiting from upstate New York for the Hell City tattoo convention. Alyssa had commissioned a pair of stars three months ago and they have healed up nicely!

Oak is a very old friend of mine of more than ten years. He and his wife Bleu own Painted Temple in Provo Utah which is one of the more amazing tattoo shops I’ve been in both in artists and beauty. The arm spines in the picture below are now resting comfortably in his forearm.
