There’s a Real Man under All that Ink

Yes, believe it or not, just 2 years and a half ago, this man looked like your average 30-year old, living  and working in the Big Apple.

I got these photos by email, the other day, and was stunned to see how much a person can change in just two years, if they get carried away. The email didn’t mention a name, but apparently the dude in the photos is a 32-year-old piercing and tattoo enthusiast, from New York, who got a ton of tattoos and piercings, but nothing that couldn’t be covered by pants and sleeves. He had a 9-to-5 office job and a pretty much normal life, when he decided to move closer to Manhattan and live how he always wanted.

Our hero started working as a tattoo apprentice, and that’s when things started getting out of hand. He started out small, with a few tattoos on the top of his shaved head, but got carried away and covered his entire head with ink. There’s really no room left and you could swear he’s a different person now.

Thanks a lot for the pics, Daegan!

    Well, I really like tatoos and piercings, but this guy was pretty attractive before he covered his complete face. :/

    For men like myself interested in extreme body mods, including extreme tattoo coverage that is always visible such as on the hands, fingers, neck and especially full facial tattoo coverage, it’s always encouraging to see a brother joining the ranks of men with heavy extreme tattooing. I have total respect for a man who “goes over the edge” as many would call it by expressing his personal commitment to the tattoo art by “taking the plunge” as I call it! Daegan, your change in appearence is awesome and serves to encourage other young men to express their individuality by “taking the plunge”. You looked good before by now your face looks awesome. I know that I’ve had the urge from time to time to go for facial tatts but seeing your awesome looking face has got me making my plans to get complete facial tattooing before the end of this year. To all of you who comment here you’ll be seeing my face here on oddity central before long!
