Different Rastas say different things but generally its a no no. Have a quick look around the forum and they'll be complete conversations on the topic.

It is written that man should not make cuttings into the flesh.

well I personally would say no for tattoos and piercings because Jah made you the way he wanted you to be.. seen?
but I think His Majesty's Queen had a tattoo on her hand..

I would say no for both tattoos and piercings because both of them cut into your flesh for know reason and also a rastas body is meant to be whole and have a piercing in your body in like separating the body. . . the skin.

Piercings and controversial a very controversial subject among Rastas since we all have different roots and ideas and some of us interpret the scriptures differently. I do agree that piercings are out of the question since they don't have any cultural meaning in any cultures that I know of but for InI tattoos are important since I people have been wearing sacred tattoos for many centuries so I feel that it is right for I to wear them since they have personal significance and help to tell I story seen?
