“It’s a fundraiser for LA Food Bank, they do an awesome work feeding the hungry in the City. I am into charity as much as I can’, – said Brian Keith Thompson, owner of Body Electric Tattoo.

Brian tells Mashable, "Some clients come in and think it’s only for 16-year-olds. I pierce very successful mothers. I’ve pierced men’s navels; I’ve pierced my own. It’s not just for young girls anymore. It’s for anybody — whoever wants it."
