- Synopsis
- Tattoos, body piercings, wild hairstyles -- people all over the world have been decorating and changing their bodies for as long as anyone can remember. This book fills you in on the how, why, and when of what people have done in the past, and what they're doing now. Author Nan McNab has always had a particular fascination for the incredible variety of ways in which people decorate themselves, and why they want to do it. Here she includes chapters on skin, face paint, body paint, tattoos, piercing, scars, hair, dress up, reshaping the body, and safety first. Numerous illustrations, including B&W and color photos, provide examples of the great variety of ways that humans adorn their bodies.
