Because her “extreme” tattoos cover her face, a mother has been “forced” to watch her child’s nativity play through a window.
Melissa Sloan, 45, from Wales, United Kingdom, has been in the news before because of her unique look. She is said to have been unable to find a job because she was “addicted” to getting tattoos.
The mother of two talked to the Daily Star, where she said that her tattoos have kept pubs from letting her in, so she can’t spend Christmas there.
Sloan doesn’t know for sure why the pubs won’t let her in, but she thinks it’s because of her tattoos, even though they haven’t said so.

Sloan said that people are quick to judge her based on how she looks and that this can lead to people being mean to her.
She told the Daily Star that Christmas is a hard time for her family and that her kids’ school makes her stand outside to watch the annual nativity.
No Christmas parties and when I go to my child’s school I don’t get invited,
Sloan revealed.
They said once for me to go to the back garden and look through the class window they told me to do so.
She doesn’t go to her kids’ plays anymore because the teacher told her to stay outside instead of being in the hall with the other parents.
Sloan said that she no longer goes to school at all and that she depends on her husband Luke to do all of the parenting tasks, like taking the kids to the school fayre.
feel so jealous as I can’t go there and to the Christmas fayre as I know what they’re [teachers and parents] like towards me,
Sloan explained that she waits alone at home for her family to return.
She has said that she won’t get any more tattoos over the holidays because that’s “family time” and it would be selfish of her to do so.
But as soon as Christmas is over, she can’t wait to get back to doing what she loves and adding more ink to her collection.
