‎The Karo excel in face and torso paintings. Elaborate facemasks are created using locally found white chalk, yellow mineral rock, pulverized iron ore and black charcoal. Karo women scarify their chests to beautify themselves and become more appealing to their men.
‎The scarification of a man’s chest is made when he has killed an enemy or a dangerous animal. The scars are cut with a knife or razor blade, and ash is then rubbed in to produce a raised welt. Like the Hamar, the wearing of a gray and ochre clay hair bun with ostrich feathers indicates a man’s bravery.

The Mursi tribe lip plate tradition
‎unmarried woman’s lower lip will be pierced and then progressively stretched over the period of a year.
‎A clay disc indented like a pulley wheel is squeezed into the hole in the lip. As it stretches, ever-larger discs are forced in until the lip, now a loop, is so long it can sometimes be pulled right over the owner’s girl .
‎head. The size of the lip plate determines the bride price, with a large one bringing in fifty head of cattle.The women make the lip plates from clay, color them with ochre and charcoal, and bake them in a fire.
