Warning - graphic pictures of scarification

🪐 E.T 🪐

I’m just wondering what everybody thinks of scarification. I saw a thread of pictures on Facebook (some included below) and a lot of comments were saying only people with mental issues would get this done, it’s not different from self harm and it shouldn’t be legal, and so on. I’m not really sure what I think about it. Is it really that different from tattooing? I do think some of them look pretty cool.
