A heavily-tattooed mum has revealed that she is allegedly getting banned from pubs and Christmas parties because of her ink.
Melissa Sloane, from Kidderminster, currently has 800 tattoos that cover her entire body and face.
The mum-of-seven gets inked at least three times a week and even tattoos herself using a £120 ink gun that she purchased from Amazon.

The 45-year-old says that she has been mocked and called “Crayola” on the school run, but is determined to keep adding to her colourful collection – even though it risks ruining her festive season.
“Because of who I am, I don’t get invited to Christmas parties,” she told NeedToKnow.online.
“I want to enjoy myself and go for a drink at the pub, but they won’t even let me in.
“I’m covered in tattoos, I’ve got 800 in total.
“l get tattoos three times a week.
“I even do my own tattoos at home.”

Despite multiple infections – and a declining festive social life – the ink-fanatic vows to never stop permanently marking her body.
She also claims that her skin has fallen off from tattoos that didn’t heal and has been left with scars.
Mellissa added: “I will never stop having tattoos until the end.”
Although some of her ink was done by professionals, many were also tattooed by her partner Luke, 56.
The mum-of-seven also admitted that two of her primary-school-aged kids have added their own additions onto her back.
