Since I discover BME a few years ago I’ve been in love with the idea of a scarification piece, however I have pasty white skin that bruises easily but doesn’t hold scars very long. Even scars from burns don’t last very long. In fact the only scars on my body are a few stretch marks and a very small one on my nose. Is there a particular method of scarring that is better suited to those of us who glow in the dark? Thank you for your time.
As a pasty white chick who notoriously doesn’t scar and has experimented with (and endured) several attempts at scarification (including electrocautery branding, simple cutting, and flesh removal) with practically no scarring to show for it, my advice is this: if you KNOW you don’t scar much, personally, I wouldn’t bother wasting my time with scarification, unless you’re really just into the process and not so much the end result. Successful scarification has far more to do with the wearer’s genetics than the artist’s techniques, IMHO.

Warren Hiller on June 25th, 2008 at 8:09 amI’m pasty white too. I’ve had seven different scarifications done by six differnt artists and all but one have faded to very fine white scars, and are almost invisible. The last one, however has healed into the most amazing, raised scarring ever. And it’s BURLY.
Look into placing your scarification in a high movement area, mine is on my upper abdomen where the skin was stretched taut every time I stood while it was healing, pulling the scars open (I should mention this was a removal piece done by Ryan Ouellette).
I figure, no harm in trying, right?
