Many of her Facebook followers have slammed her decision as 'crazy', 'disgusting' and "stupid."
During a rant on her page, Reynolds replied: "I do these things for myself. It's not hurting ANYBODY else. I chose to document them on Facebook because I want to share the experience with my friends."
While her latest stunt is shocking - she is no stranger to gory body modification.
Reynolds previously hacked a tattoo of her ex-boyfriend's name off her forearm, after hearing he had cheated on her.
In 2014, she learnt that ex Stuart 'Chopper' May had been living with another woman for six months, despite telling her he was moving to Alaska for work.
Reynolds had previously inked herself with a tattoo that said "Chopper's B****" but as soon as she heard of his betrayal decided that she no longer wanted the romantic tribute on her body.
It took her an hour and a half to carefully slicing the skin from her arm. She then used a pair of dissection tweezers to peel the skin back.
Afterwards, the remnants of the tattoo were put in a jar, wrapped up with a bow and sent via recorded delivery to her former lover.
Reynolds even tracked it online so she knew for definite that Chopper had received it.
She said: "I packaged it up so it really did look like a present. I even used different handwriting so he'd have no idea that it was me.
"I can't imagine what his reaction was. I wish I could have been there to see it."
