A mum lets her nine-year-old daughter tattoo her for “practice” and says the designs have gone “surprisingly well”. Christine Fleming, 33, wanted to introduce her little girl, Scarlett, to inking and suggested she try tattooing on fake skin at first.
But in November 2022, Christine let Scarlett, then eight, tattoo a simple heart on her leg and was surprised at the results. Scarlett has since built up the skills to ink a butterfly and a flower on mum Christine and is “proud” of her designs.
Christine, a tattoo artist, said: “I let her do a tiny heart on my leg and it went surprisingly well. She’s really good at following instruction and I guide her through.
