Body Jewelry: an unusual way of
enhancing the beauty of your own body.
Since ancient times body jewelry has been a part of the culture
and heritage of different religions. It has been known to be an
essential part of the clothing and appearance of the people in
many regions of the world. At different parts of time through
the centuries it was also used to signify the class demarcations
prevalent in society at that point of time.
How ever in recent times it has acquired a new dimension. Body
jewelry has never been in such high demand. The human body is
not merely a body, it is a piece of art which has its own innate
beauty and body jewelry is the perfect way to enhance the beauty
of your body. Not only can you decorate your body with it, but
you can also use it to bring into focus certain parts of your
body or to enhance the beauty of certain parts.
Body jewelry items are usually for particular places on the
human body. These more common places for body jewelry include
the nose, eyebrow, nipple, ear lobes and naval, along with ear
plugs (both curved and straight barbells). As fashion trends
keep changing, the various parts where you can use body jewelry
and the manner in which you can use it also keeps changing.
Nose body jewelry comes either in the classic captive circular
barbell, or in the form of a nose screw. The nose screw can
either be jeweled or plain, depending upon your preference.
Eyebrow body jewelry is similar to that of the nose, in the
sense that the eyebrow body jewelry also has the small captive
barbell. This is now being made with a dangling, sparkling charm
to hang from
the upper most part of your eyebrow
barbell. The eyebrow body jewelry can be either curved or
straight with a charm of any style or color dangling from the
top.
Nipple and naval body jewelry is one of the more
popular types of body jewelry, it sis especially popular amongst the
youth or the more adventurous in spirit. Nipple body jewelry includes
the nipple barbells and the nipple shields. Naval body jewelry designs
are also endless.
Whatever kind of body jewelry you use or wear it is
important to keep some pointers in mind. Such as what kind of material
is that specific body jewelry made off, is your skin allergic to it and
is the piercing for the body jewelry done in a sterile and antiseptic
environment.
This kind of jewelry is available for almost every
conceivable part of your body. There are endless styles, designs, colors
and textures in which body jewelry is made. What ever your budget,
whether it is low end or high end; body jewelry is available in every
range to suit your pocket as well as your tastes.
Body jewelry is not merely a decorative fixture; it
is also a personal style statement. You can use it to bring attention or
to take away attention from a specific part of your body. It is quite in
vogue these days and has been in existence since time immemorial. If you
have the attitude and the panache you can carry of any kind of body
jewelry.

The Rich
History of Body Piercing: Almost as Old as Mankind
Although
piercing parts of the body - other than the ears - may seem to
be a recent fashion and lifestyle trend, body piercing actually
has a rich history that dates back to ancient times. Whether as
a means of personal expression, to designate societal standing,
or as part of religious ritual, body piercing has been around
almost as long as mankind.
Navel piercing: Although navel piercing is extremely popular
today, in the ancient Egyptian civilization only the royal
family was allowed to pierce their belly buttons - and anyone
who broke this rule would be executed!
Nostril piercing: A passage from Genesis in the Bible's Old
Testament says, "...The man took out a gold nose ring...."
Originating in the Middle East over 4,000 years ago, nostril
piercing is still practiced by Bedouins today. Husbands present
their wives with a ring at marriage, and the size of the ring
denotes a family's wealth. The practice traveled from the Middle
East to India in the 17th century, where the type of jewel worn
in the nose would designate social standing. Today, Indian women
typically pierce their left nostril, in a spot associated with
easing the pain of childbirth. Nostril piercing traveled to the
West in the late 1960s, when young people searching for
spiritual enlightenment in India returned home. Punk rockers and
their followers adopted the practice in the 1970s, and it was
revived again in the 1990s.
Tongue piercing: Tongue piercing was practiced by Aztec and
Mayan priests and shamans, in the belief that it would help them
better communicate with their gods.
Ear piercing: A passage from Exodus in the Bible's Old Testament
says, "He shall take him to the door or the doorpost and pierce
his ear with an awl." The oldest mummy ever found, dating back
five centuries, had his ear pierced, and there is evidence that,
over two centuries ago, people living on the Island of Cyprus
pierced their ears. Tribes in South America and Africa would
pierce their ears and stretch the holes; the larger the hole,
the greater the person's stature in the tribe. Everyone from the
Romans to the Tlingit tribe in Alaska viewed ear piercing as a
sign of wealth and stature. Even sailors pierced their ears, in
the belief that it gave them better eyesight.
Lip piercing: Historically, Aztecs and Mayan men underwent
labret piercing and wore ornamental gold labrets to distinguish
themselves as members in high social standing. Among some
African tribes, lip piercing carried religious significance,
while others perceived labrets as beautiful body adornment, and
for still others, it was part of the rite of betrothal.
