A mother who claims she's ''addicted'' to tattoos has shocked the internet with an unrecognisable picture of what she used to look like before she began her extreme body ink collection. Melissa Sloan, 45, has claimed she now ''can't get a job '' due to the countless distinct designs that are inked across most of her body, including the majority of her face.
Over the years, she has spent a long time building up her body art and has even gone over old tattoos as she has ran out of space on her skin for new creations. The 45-year-old, from Wales, said she gets a short term ''buzz'' out of tattoos and adds on average three new designs per week to her collection - but she is not done yet, the Mirror reports.
She explains that most of her body art is done ''prison style'' outwith a professional salon, as her boyfriend either inks her skin at home or she does it herself. Melissa said that people can be unkind to her about her appearance and she is often stared at on the street but the unbothered mum said she wont let their negative opinions stop her as she plans her next upcoming piece which will be a crucifix under her right eye.
