This was done by Lori St. Leone from Vogue Body Piercing in Darwin, NT, Australia. She writes that the client’s bones were fully formed and normal, but the two toes were fused by soft tissue and “very safe to pierce through”. She did the piercing in 14ga, with a gem setting on the top and a round bead on the bottom… For some people a flat disc would be used, but because of her anatomy (concave surface on the bottom), using a ball instead allowed Lori to do a placement that put nearly no pressure on the piercing during walking.
How strange is it that this is starting to become a not-so-uncommon piercing? Fused/webbed toes occur in about 1 in 2,000 people (including Marge Simpson), so maybe it’s about time to add a “Syndactyly Piercing” section or something?

i feel left out… i blame god… although i’m not a big fan of feet anyway…
SmallPotatoGato on February 21st, 2007 at 2:49 pmDo you think Marge Simpson would ever get her webbed toe pierced?
pretty_pantyhead on February 21st, 2007 at 2:57 pmSure Marge would have it done. She’s got a bit of the wild/adventurous side in her ;). Why did the client roll her shirt up for a toe web piercing? Was she in for anything else?
lilish on February 21st, 2007 at 3:05 pmmaybe she should put a flat disk on the bottom instead of a ball, so when she walks it wont push in or reject. Anyways, its still funky looking, I love it.
wlcm2t3hmachine on February 21st, 2007 at 3:32 pmIt looks king of cool,… never really seen webtoes in my life so this is a first
Masticate on February 21st, 2007 at 3:33 pmahhahaha I didnt read what was already written, SO, I retract the begining of my last comment! and simply think that it is awesome looking.
wlcm2t3hmachine on February 21st, 2007 at 3:36 pmalthough the piercing is real cute and quirky, you can see a bit of her cooch in the big pic. oops!
Emily on February 21st, 2007 at 3:38 pmaw, she looks so happy. :D i can’t help but think the barbell should have had a disk end on the bottom but oh well.
xchristinex on February 21st, 2007 at 4:18 pmVery cool, interesting piercing. Might I add that Lori seriously rocks!!!!! She’s such an awesome person!!!
Venomous Intellect on February 21st, 2007 at 6:17 pmAm I the only one who notices in all the pics of the girls feet from the links they all have chipped nailpolish and or dirty toenails? that cant be clean…
Coley on February 21st, 2007 at 7:11 pmspeaking of sections, why isn’t there a conch piercing section?
Zar on February 21st, 2007 at 9:10 pmIt’d be great to get 3 piercings there, it’d look so cute.
Talking of feet I’m having an operation on my in 4 moths as I have claw toe. They’re going to cut tendons attached to every toe except my big one, break the joints in two of my toes then fuse them together differently and on my little toes either cut a bit of skin from my foot so my whole toe can move down and across then have a graft or something, break the joints, cut the tendons etc…or just cut the little toes offf, because they’re probably gonna curl back up anyway.
I’m not sure what to do and kinda wondered if this would technically count as a mod seeing as it’s my choice to have them removed..
Wiggledance on February 21st, 2007 at 9:24 pmEverytime I see webbed toes, it makes me want to itch in between my toes. At the end of the day when I take off my socks, i always run my fingers between my toes to remove lint/particules and I let them get some air.. I don’t like the feeling of my toes being squished together all the time, so when I see them webbed, all I can think is how crazy it would make me to have them stuck together. However, of course I understand that infact to that person its more liek just one toe rather than two stuck together…. still.. makes me want to scratch.
LeaveThePoliticsToMadmen on February 21st, 2007 at 9:42 pmMarge already has a tattoo, so I’m sure it won’t take too lnog for here to get her webbed-toes pierced.
Leroy on February 21st, 2007 at 10:13 pmhmm. i think this is pretty cool. if i had webbed toes i’d surely pierce the f*ckers. i think a flat back, bling style piece would look sehr hot.

Verlierer on February 21st, 2007 at 10:35 pmare her nether regions supposed to be visible?
Sam on February 21st, 2007 at 11:10 pmNice to see a lady making the most of what God have her.
ÈMþRꧧ on February 21st, 2007 at 11:11 pmGo girl, nice piercing enjoy :)
I like how she is visibly unmodified.
Jessica on February 21st, 2007 at 11:32 pm#17…I was kind of wondering if I was the only person noticing the vag shot in that pic
J on February 22nd, 2007 at 1:32 amEvery time I see one of these piercngs, my toes hurt so bad. It’s cool and all but AGHHH!!!
lippi on February 22nd, 2007 at 2:05 aminfection?
Ben on February 22nd, 2007 at 2:12 ambodies are beautiful, all of them, woo!
Stimpson on February 22nd, 2007 at 2:38 amI had planned on putting a disc on the bottom of the piercing, but after marking it up and checking her anatomy, the edges of the disc would’ve rubbed her raw on the underside. We discussed it and decided to use a ball instead, with the understanding that she’d come back straight away if there were any issues. She’s been in to the shop twice since doing the piercing and it’s healing beautifully. :)
And you so can NOT see her vag in those pictures, sheesh - she’s wearing shorts!
Lori on February 22nd, 2007 at 3:38 amyou see a bit of the clam its cool, this is modblog after all :)
Lily on February 22nd, 2007 at 4:03 ambut wow what a cool piercing!
clam chouder.
tinaxo on February 22nd, 2007 at 4:42 amDid anyone mention that this is not a toe-web piercing? Her toes are fused, not webbed. Minor thing, but just thought I’d mention it, and of course I could be totally wrong, I’m not a doctor or anything.
And…”you see a bit of the clam it’s cool…” Holy crap, thought I’d die laughing right there.
molex on February 22nd, 2007 at 5:05 am*sigh* I assure you, you can’t see her vulva in any of those pictures. Anyone on IAM is welcome to check out the original pic on my page, it’s larger - you’re seeing a shadow and some of her inner thigh. She is dressed and decent in these photographs. Sorry to disillusion the wishful thinking… ;)
For clam pictures, scroll down, I’m sure you won’t have to look too hard to find some Aussie girls who have no problem getting their junk out on the internet. *grin*
Lori on February 22nd, 2007 at 5:32 amOh, and her shirt’s rolled up cos I had changed the jewellery in her navel piercing prior to doing her toe piercing, and she forgot to pull it down and I didn’t notice when I was taking the pics. Oops!
Lori on February 22nd, 2007 at 5:39 amWow. Now I’m jealous. Of people with webbed toes.
gwennn. on February 22nd, 2007 at 7:12 amWere the littler pictures taken at a different time? ‘Cause in the big picture, it looks like her toenails are painted, and then, like in the bottom right picture, they’re obviously not?
gwennn. on February 22nd, 2007 at 7:18 amSeconds no. 29.
Then again.
I have a friend with webbed toes and she always has trouble clipping them.
Meh.
Still jealous :)
Kyrenna on February 22nd, 2007 at 9:49 ami can see your ‘gina!
tommy on February 22nd, 2007 at 10:02 amthat webbed toe creeps me out. I’m disgusted by other people’s toes.
Can’t help it.
Suzanne on February 22nd, 2007 at 11:10 am# 34 ,
Your face creeps me out! im disgusted by it actually..
I just cant help it. i had to say it.
Jacki D on February 22nd, 2007 at 1:15 pmshut up jacki D…
this is realy interesting, i like it cant imagine it to be confortable tho?
Ozmo on February 22nd, 2007 at 2:15 pmthats a total vag shot
J on February 22nd, 2007 at 5:45 pmI love how thrilled she looks with it.
Kristin on February 22nd, 2007 at 6:38 pmThis lady is naturally moded, its great. I have to pay for my body to be differant.
johnthescon on February 22nd, 2007 at 7:55 pmLove the way she looks so happy
nice lip(s)
Dez on February 22nd, 2007 at 8:32 pmok, so i came a little late to this convo - but im sorry lori, but im pretty sure im one of the few girls on bme that DOESNT get their junk out. if you care to take a look at my page, there arent ANY pics of my genital piercings, maybe a pic or two on a private forum, but when have you EVER
panties on February 23rd, 2007 at 6:54 amok, so i came a little late to this convo - but im sorry lori, but im pretty sure im one of the few girls on bme that DOESNT get their junk out. if you care to take a look at my page, there arent ANY pics of my genital piercings, maybe a pic or two on a private forum, but when have you EVER seen me nude publicly on iam? and you dont seem to be jumping in everytime a girl shows her genital piercings publicly - which i by no means think is a bad thing, i just wouldnt do it - but if not wearing long pants to show off piercings that would otherwise be covered by them to show them at their best seems totally fine and respectable to me.
moral is - i resent your ludicrous comment about aussie girls getting their junk out. sorry people are just more interested in looking at me than you.
panties on February 23rd, 2007 at 6:55 amHey Ozmo how about you suck my webbed cock? :D
Jacki D on February 23rd, 2007 at 8:54 am#35 shut up. I’m not saying that the piercing is disgusting, it looks great.
Suzanne on February 23rd, 2007 at 9:51 amIt makes me want webbed toes so I can piece them!
Spacy on February 23rd, 2007 at 1:05 pmmeeeeow, panties - table for two, saucer of milk? Not that I even referred to you specifically (or anyone at all), but it was a JOKE, hence the “*grin*” and “;)”. If you have a specific issue to address with me, you’re welcome to IM me about it (or call or email, for that matter). Settle, petal. Sheesh. There’s no need to get all catty ‘n personal.
Lori on February 23rd, 2007 at 1:43 pmCause thats not your style at all is it Lori?
L-Pot on February 23rd, 2007 at 11:38 pmpretty sure you made it catty and personal by referring to”some Aussie girls who have no problem getting their junk out on the internet.” particularly when im about two pictures down. maybe you should consider your personal issues with me and my mates.. or any girl under 80 kilos for that matter… *grin*
panties on February 24th, 2007 at 12:15 amOK, since you want to get stuck into it on a public forum, I’ll address your comment. Glad to know you can read and understand English well, though. It also clarifies how much of this is about garnering more attention for yourself rather than any real problem with anything I’ve said or done, too.
I don’t have any issues with you or your “mates”, no matter how important you all rank yourselves - I don’t know any of you personally and your personalities online don’t particularly make me want to extend the hand of friendship. You should probably stop assuming that everyone knows you or is interested in you in any way, positive or negative.
As for you (or your friends) getting it out on the internet, well, if the shoe fits, baby. No, I don’t think I’ve ever seen an actual graphic nude photo of you (and mind, I haven’t gone to your page looking or anything, and I never did go look at all of the pics from NYE, although I heard all about it), but I’ve certainly never seen a picture of you with a whole lot of clothing on, either, and you do seem to prefer to post pictures like that as avatars in forums we both frequent. I’m not saying that as a slam against you in any way, we live in a very hot climate and most people in either of our towns don’t walk around rugged up for winter, and you do have a good figure, but I’m just saying - you certainly don’t mind dressing in a very provocative manner and posting pictures on the internet. Is making a factual observation catty or insulting? It certainly wasn’t my intent to be that way, as I stated above. I think you’re choosing to interpret it that way, even though I’ve clarified my statement to explain otherwise. My advice is to stop looking for drama where there isn’t any.
My original comment was in reference to all of the claims that my client was exposing herself in these photographs. She’s not, although a shadow kind of makes it look that way. It’s just a fact that certainly the overwhelming majority of pictures of Australian females on Modblog are more about the sex than the mod in question - and yes, Shannon, I’m aware that in your mind the two are inseparable, but you have to be aware that for many, it’s not like that.
This Modblog entry isn’t about me as such, it’s about a piercing I did. I’d far prefer to be known for the work that I do and what I contribute to the body modification community than for anything as ephemeral as youth or beauty, but then, I am a body modification professional with a lifelong commitment to the pursuit, not a scenester or an attention junkie. And I’m very comfortable with my body, my health, and my physical appearance, thank you. I’m much healthier and in better shape physically now in my thirties than I was ten years ago, when I was a size 10 or 12 and drinking/doing drugs/partying all the time! But by all means, feel free to keep making digs at my size, love, I’m sure that’ll do wonders for your public image and approval rating.
At any rate, that’s what I have to say on the matter. Any further comment on the drama/flamewar aspect of this post should be addressed to me privately, as further discussion of my personal life or views in this comment forum will be ignored. I know, OMG LAST WORD OPPORTUNITY! Go for it with my blessing, panties, I’m truly not fussed.
Lori on February 24th, 2007 at 1:08 amHey Loz,
Ashlee on February 24th, 2007 at 12:37 pmI meant to tell you the other day..
congrats for getting something published to modblog again :D
The proper term is “fused” not “webbed.” I was going to get my toe fusions pierced but now with microdermals I am kinda thinking that MD’s are better suited. But if you were to pierce it, a round bead/ball on the bottom would be best, the edges wouldn’t dig and rub like a disk would….you just gotta have fused toes to understand. =P
flour on February 25th, 2007 at 4:49 pmhey you’re a fat bitch
negative_chris on February 26th, 2007 at 6:18 amI’ve never seen a piercing like that before, so thanks Lori for sharing your great work.
Such a shame that it isn’t the modification that is the main topic of interest here…but instead petty, childish shit.
Kylie on February 27th, 2007 at 3:31 amthat’s just amazingly weird
reaper6906 on February 27th, 2007 at 7:33 amThat’s really cool. I have webbed toes, too.
It looks cool but it looks as if it would feel really noticeable when you walked?
Ashley on March 10th, 2007 at 10:04 pmU no what? they should make toe rings for people with webbed feet! all you would hav to do is make it a little wider. so it will go around both of the persons webbed toes!!!
i think webbed feet look great!
takun on March 13th, 2007 at 12:32 amthey should make toe rings for those that have webbed toes so they wont feel left out. all you would have to do is make the toe ring a bit wider so it would be able to go around both of the webbed toes! i think that picture is awesome i love people with webbed toes! its so sexy!
takun on March 13th, 2007 at 12:38 ami have webbed toe as well, never thought of doing something like this, it’s funky as it is… but hey, if she’s happy about it than who am i…
roniya on June 21st, 2007 at 6:06 ammy 2nd and 3rd toes on both feet are webbed almost all the way and my 2nd toe on both feet is really crooked it sucks!
XxchrissyxX on August 17th, 2007 at 10:06 pmi have webbed toes too! except on my left foot my 2nd toe is on top of my third toe and webbed together like that it sucks!
jasmine on September 11th, 2007 at 3:05 amon my right foot my 2nd and 3rd toes are webbed too! my 2nd toe & 3rd toes (rigth foot) are the same size and they are both longer than my big toe! on my left foot i dont really know if my 2nd toe is longer than my big toe or not because its layed on top of my 3rd toe and its crooked at the top! (oh and my webbed toes are fully webbed the right toes are pretty close) all of my friends think its funny. i cant even paint my 3rd toe nail on my left foot! i do wear to rings! hehe but i have to wear them on my fourth toe! my freinds all wear toe socks on wednesday’s but i cant! i dontlike to wear to wear shoes i only wear flip flops (even in the winter) because its really uncomfortable on my left foot because my 2nd toe is over my 3rd toe and it sort of sticks up and makes it to wear i cant move my 2nd&3rd toes! lol! its also kind of hard to balance on like a blance beam and stuff cause you kinda need to spread your toes apart but i cant! so i dont do very well at that! on my right foot my toes separate right before the nail! when ever my mom and i paint our toenails my mom always makes a comment about my toes! (she only has webbed toes on one side) for some reason my mom doesnt like wearing shoes or flip flops and when she does wear flip flops she takes them off when she drives (i do the same thing) she said it feels kind of wierd having webbed toes on one side becuase she can separate them on one side but she cant on the other! she always wears toe rings on her right foot! (the foot without the webbing) my mom does have a little bit of hammer toe on her left foot too! but hers is not as bad as my her 2nd and 3rd toes (it would only be her 2n toe but they are webbed so the 3rd is forced) go under her big toe! i guess thats why she hates wearing shoes and flip flops! i probably own mayb 3 pairs of socks lol! and my mom has like 3or 4. ( i told you we dont like having our toes covered up!) when me and my friends paint our toes they always laugh at mine! hehe dont blame them it is kind of funny cuase its like painting nine toes! when ever i buy a toe ring i see the cashier lady or who ever is working ther look at my toes! lol! one time the lady at the toe ring store in the mall said “whos this for?” right after she looked at my toes so i told her that it was for me and that i realize that my toes are webbed thats why i out the toe ring on my 4th toe! ive had people take pictures of my toes and put them in the yearbook! it was cool!! my mom has a pair of shoes that sh got from a friend and the shoes had a strap for that goes inbetween the big toe the 2nd & 3rd toes and my mom tried to put them on it was halarious! I LOVE WEBBED TOES!!!!…(sometimes)
i love my toes!! yes, they are webbed all the way up on both feet! i hate having my toes covered up too. i always wear open toed shoes or i am barefoot! i have one other friend with webbed toes! (hers is not as webbed as mine) her toes are webbed only half the way up on both feet. my toes on my left foot are squished up against my big toe for some reason! =( i wear toe rings on my fourth toe also! only on my left foot though.
Alyssa on September 15th, 2007 at 7:16 pmMy baby girl was just born with fused ‘webbed’ toes, we think she came from a water planet and we call her our little mermaid…anyway, I was just checking out the web to see if most people have surgery and I came upon this site…so it is good to see…thanks for the encouragement…the young lady on here looks lovely and it has eased my mind a bit~ Mimi
Mimi Burns on October 4th, 2007 at 10:41 pmI HAVE WEBBED TOES AND I HATE IT I’M CONSIDERING GETTING OPERATION IT TOTALLY SUCKS I’M INSECURE AND I CAN’T WAIT UP TO GET THEM DONE BEING THAT THE HOSPITAL FEELS IT IS COSMETIC SURGERY I DON’T SHOW THEM AT ALL NEVER WORE OPEN TOE SHOES ONLY PEEP TOE SHOES THAT SHOW ONLY UR BIG AND SECOND TOE MY SECOND AND MY THIRD TOE ARE WEBBED ON BOTH FEET I THOUGHT ABOUT CUTTING IT MYSELF AND THEN GOING TO THE HOSPITAL BUT THEY MIGHT THINK I’M CRAZY SO I’M JUST GONNA LET THEM DO IT. I GUESS SOME PEOPLE DON’T CARE OR JUST CALL ME VAIN BUT I HATE HAVING THEM LIKE THAT IT’S NOT SEXY AT ALL IF UR WITH A GUY AND UR PLAYING FOOTSIES WITH HIM AND UR FEET LOOK LIKE THAT OR IF HE HAS A FOOT FETISH AND THEY LOOK LIKE THAT AND MY LUCK ALL THE GUYS I DATE HAVE FOOT FETISH AND WANTED TO SEE MY FEET BUT I ALWAYS KEEP THEM IN SOCKS IT SUCKS VICKY’S LINGERIE AND SOCKS NOT CUTE
TANIKA LORS on October 17th, 2007 at 2:32 amAT ALL.
my 2nd, 3rd and 4th toes are webbed =( my 2nd and 3rd toes (both feet) are fully webbed but my 3rd and 4th toes are about half way i like having webbed toes but i dont like to show them off. i do wear flip flops but not very often. i have never thought of piercing them before i like the way it looks but i think my toes are to close together to pierce.
KyrA on November 8th, 2007 at 2:04 ami have webbed toes also my toes arent webbed all the way up so i do wear toe rings and i modified a pair of toesocks so now i can wear those too. i have thought of piercing my webbed toes but just never actually did it. and every pic i ve seen of pierced webbed toes look kinda gross so ill pass.
