Vatooing: A New Kind of Painted Box

It was only a matter of time before the vajazzling founders at Completely Bare Spa in New York one upped even themselves. Allow them to introduce the Vatoo -- the latest down-under adornment that can be done after a good wax, of course. Like the vajazzle, the vattoo isn't permanent...

It was only a matter of time before the vajazzling founders at Completely Bare Spa in New York one upped even themselves. Allow them to introduce the Vatoo -- the latest down-under adornment that can be done after a good wax, of course.

Like the vajazzle, the vattoo isn't permanent and can last on the vulva for seven days if the vattoo-ed "avoids friction" (the spa's representatives explain that might take some creativity).

More vattoo details -- if you really need them -- and a "how it's done" video after the jump ...
