My Christmas is ruined & I’m banned from the pub because of my face tattoos – I’ve got hundreds but I’ll never stop
A MUM with a face full of tattoos said her Christmas is ruined because she’s been banned from the pub.
Melissa Sloane has her entire body and face covered after being inked 800 times.
The mum-of-seven bought a £120 gun on Amazon and tats herself at least three times a week.
Despite claiming she’s mocked on the school run and can’t go to Christmas parties, Melissa said she will never stop permanently marking her body.
The 45-year-old told NeedToKnow.online: “Because of who I am, I don’t get invited to Christmas parties.
“I want to enjoy myself and go for a drink at the pub, but they won’t even let me in.”
Melissa, from Kidderminster, said she is known as “Crayola” – but it doesn’t stop her loving her colourful face.
Claiming her skin has fallen off from tattoos which didn’t heal, Melissa has also been left with scarring.
Melissa admits she’s too “impatient” and will go ahead and put a new one on the raw space.
Although some of her ink was done by professionals, many were done by her partner Luke, 56, and two of her kids – who are in primary school.
The mum revealed that her obsession with tattoos, which include facial tattoos of Playboy bunnies and marijuana leaves has made it difficult for her to find a job.
She isn’t the only mum who decide to tat her entire body.
Aimee Smith, 23, has over 40 tattoos including some on her face.
The mum-of-three said it’s a way of expressing herself.
