“Butbut Tribe”

Agsing Bumangil is considered the best weaver of the Butbut Tribe in Kalinga, but her body itself bears a striking work of art. In the highlands of Bugnay, Tinglayan in Kalinga, tattoos have been a mark of beauty for centuries. Instead of needles, Kalinga tattoo artists use thorns inserted into a piece of bamboo. Completing a piece of skin art that covers the length of an arm can take days, weeks or even months — in the course of the tattooing, the one getting a tattoo may sometimes fall sick from the sheer pain and may need a few days to recover.

Wait there’s more! Take a peek and see the Beauty of the Philippines!
