A mum-of-two who is believes she is the ' world's most tattooed person ' has been banned from her local pub and school over her inkings.
Melissa Sloan has 800 tattoos across her body and face and wants a Guinness World Record to prove it.
Despite loving her body art and continuing to get three new tats a week - the mum is banned from many aspects of normal life.
Melissa, from Wales, is barred from her local pub, schools and other tattoo parlours due to her collection.
The 46-year-old misses a pint and chats at the boozer but says there's "nothing she can do about it" now.
"I can't get a job. They won't have me. I applied for a job cleaning toilets where I live and they won't have me because of my tattoos," she told the Daily Star.
It's not just work that Melissa struggles with, but at the end of last year, she was allegedly barred from her children's school.
She claims she was made to watch her child's nativity play through the window, as people can't see past her alternative appearance.
"No Christmas parties and when I go to my child's school, I don't get invited," Melissa said.
Even getting tatted is an issue, as artists have shut the door and refused to work on her face, over fears of her ink addiction.
"They won't do it because I'm beyond help - because I've gone too far," Melissa explained.
And before she was banned from entering tattoo shops, the mum was barred from the boozer.
"I've been banned for life from pubs in the past because of the tattoos. I have gone into pubs and had people look at me like I'm nobody," she said.
Melissa's face is covered in designs of flowers and crucifixes. Unhappy with one layer, the tattoo addict began inking over her old designs until she had covered her face and head three times.

I’m a firm believer of the phrase ‘less is more’, especially when it comes to food. Throwing everything at a dish is a huge red flag for me as it can ruin a perfectly good meal, so when I saw 'The Beast' sandwich at Ad Maiora I thought it was flavour overkill for the sake of shock value and a good insta pic. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Ad Maiora is the brainchild of Sardinian couple Daniela Steri and Enrico Pinna who run their little business out of their flat in Manchester's Northern Quarter. They both quit their jobs at the end of last year to start selling authentic Italian sandwiches, and have quickly amassed a huge following of bread lovers across the city who can’t get enough of their homemade butties.

Joe Otterson TV Reporter “Insecure” is now officially available to stream on Netflix, the first HBO original to launch on the streamer under a new licensing deal with Warner Bros. Discovery. It was first reported on June 20 that WBD was in talks to license some of their original shows to Netflix. In addition, the streamer has confirmed that “Band of Brothers,” “The Pacific,” “Six Feet Under,” and “Ballers” will be coming to the service at a later date. “True Blood,” which also currently streams on Hulu, will be available to Netflix subscribers outside the U.S. All of the shows remain available to stream on Max (formerly HBO Max) as well. The deal marks the latest shift in content strategy at Warner Bros. Discovery under the David Zaslav regime. In January, Warner Bros. Discovery made licensing moves by partnering with Roku and Tubi to launch free, ad-supported channels with HBO shows. The FAST channels included all seasons of shows like “Westworld,” “Raised by Wolves,” “Legendary,” “FBoy Island,” “The Nevers,” “Finding Magic Mike,” “Head of the Class,” “The Time Traveler’s Wife” and more. In 2014, HBO and Amazon reached an exclusive licensing deal to stream shows like “the Sopranos,” “Boardwalk Empire,” “True Blood” and more on Amazon Prime Video.
