Inked-up mum with face tattoos 'banned' from parlour as she's 'gone too far'
A mum who is 'addicted' to tattoos and gets new 'prison style' inkings each week has been banned from her local parlour - because they think she's 'gone too far'.
Melissa Sloan, 46, has crosses all over her face and flowers covering her scalp, but her extensive inking doesn't stop there as almost every inch of her skin is covered several times over.
She keeps a tattoo gun with her at all times in case inspiration strikes, and to keep money down she gets her partner, Luke, to do most of the work, as the Daily Star reports.
Melissa has been banned from restaurants and pubs due to her extreme appearance, and now she's been asked to leave her local tattoo parlour as they said they can't help her with any more designs.

Melissa said: "Tattoo shops shut the door on me – tattooists won't let me in.
"When I had this done [my face], there's one about five miles up the road and they won't do it.
"They won't do it because I'm beyond – beyond help because I've gone too far."
Melissa will now have to refrain from getting larger more intricate pieces done, like the homage to the Kray Twins she has on her calf.
But that has not dulled the mum's spirits.

"I'm shocked that the tattoo artist is accepting me for who I am because they don't see behind me [the tattoos] but he's offered me to go," she shared.
"I'm very surprised."
As Melissa tries to secure her appointment in a tattoo shop, she has wasted no time fulfilling her three-a-week quota at home in the meantime.
She added: "I've [now] got three layers on the face, I'm doing another line across my nose and then the nose is gone and I'm going to get a 'moustache'," she shared.
