With hundreds of tattoos and a face now covered in layers of Ink, this woman’s life has changed dramatically

🧐 “Her face became blue—and people started shutting doors on her.” Meet Melissa Sloan, a woman who has taken tattooing to the extreme, with nearly 800 inkings—many of them layered right over her face. 😵‍💫

A mother of two, Melissa admits that her appearance has deeply impacted her day-to-day existence—particularly when it comes to employment. 😔

What’s truly astonishing, though, are the photos from her past. 😲 Check out how she looked before all the ink 👇

Now 46, Melissa turns heads everywhere she goes. Her body is completely tattooed—from the crown of her head to the bottoms of her feet.

But her passion for body art has come at a cost. She’s been rejected for jobs, turned away from local venues, and even banned from getting more tattoos at certain parlors.

Anyone with tattoos knows how addictive they can be—but for Melissa, the urge never stopped. After her first design, she just kept adding more… and more.

She estimates she’s undergone nearly 800 tattoo sessions and believes she may be the most tattooed woman alive.

How frequent are her visits to the tattoo chair? Melissa says she gets inked up to three times a week.

She revealed in an interview, “I can’t find a job. I even applied to clean toilets near where I live, but they said no—just because of how I look.”

Melissa added, “People assume I’ve never worked, but that’s not true. I had a job once, though it didn’t last. If someone hired me today, I’d gladly accept.”

Her appearance has also had unintended consequences for her kids. Last year, she wasn’t allowed inside for her child’s Christmas play—she had to watch from outside the window.

“No school events, no party invites,” she told The Mirror. “It feels like I’m being shut out of society.”

Even her neighborhood pub has stopped letting her in—all because of her looks. But Melissa says she’s made peace with that.

“There’s no going back,” she shared. “I’ll keep getting tattoos as long as I can—hopefully well into my 70s.”

Her goal? To completely tattoo her entire body—even if she ends up fully blue. “My face is already turning blue—I kind of look like a Smurf,” she joked.

Melissa’s dedication to tattooing is next-level. She’s tattooed the same spots repeatedly—her head and face have been covered not once, but three times.

“I want to be in the Guinness World Records,” she said. “I probably already have the most tattoos of anyone. And if not yet, I’m sure I will soon. I keep layering them.”

Ironically, despite her love for tattoos, some studios have started to turn her away. Her commitment is so intense, even tattoo artists are drawing the line.

Still, Melissa remains bold and unbothered. She proudly showcases her transformation, sharing old pictures to highlight how far she’s come on her tattoo journey.
