RE: Face tattooed women: unusual way of self protection. My personal travel notes about Myanmar #Photo Essay
Congratulations! Your post was selected by the @dropahead Curation Team (dCT)
The culture in that town is interesting.
I left with the doubt of how they made those tattoos.
They do not give information of the utensils that they used in that town to realize the tattoos?

Thank you for your question @mandolincarls
As our guide told us face tattooing was a very painful process. Girls underwent face tattooing when they were 10 or 12 years old. The tattoos were made by skillful women. As utensils they used sharp thorns (as a needle), leaves (which gave color) and soot. After the procedure a special vegetable mask was applied to remove inflammation.
