I’m a tattoo fan & even have my EYES inked but covered up to meet my GF’s dad… people say it’s a ‘million times better’

HE'S such a tattoo mega fan that he even has his EYES inked. But as he prepared to meet his girlfriend Lamar's father, Sean decided to try covering up all his etchings in a bid to impress the man he called his "soon-to-be father-in-law". He added that they were going to a "pretty nice steakhouse" for dinner, and as neither her dad or stepmother have social media, he was hoping to be able to "fool them".

Sean enlisted the help of a pal to cover him in foundation and concealer in a bid to completely conceal the dozens of tattoos that covered his face. "I haven't looked like this in a while!" he said in a video on his TikTok page as he admired the finished makeover. "Oh, man. I hate it!". But Sean added it was as "close as we're gonna get" to seeing what he looks like without any face tattoos. As he needed to head to his nearest delivery office, he donned a baseball cap and went on his way, but admitted: "I think I look crazier with a face full of makeup than tattoos!".

After posting his parcels, he went to buy an energy drink, as he relished "no longer being a face-tattooed freak". But his disguise was almost blown when he met a fan of his social media videos, who told him: "How you doing? I watch your videos, they're really cool!". After thanking the man, Sean exclaimed: "Well look at that - people already treat me better!". Once home from his meal out, he seized the opportunity to wash off the make-up, as he said: "Well, that was fun, but let's get back to reality!".

The comments section was quickly filled with people having their say on Sean's transformation, with one insisting it "looks a million times better" having no tattoos than loads. "You looks so much better," another wrote. "Not gonna lie, looks a lot better," a third commented. "Actually insane how much better it looks," someone else said. While other people insisted Sean shouldn't have to "change" his appearance to please anyone.

"I’m not a huge fan of tats but I’m a strong believer in never having to change who you are for someone else," one wrote. Eyeball tattooing is an incredibly dangerous and rare procedure. It is unlike other tattoos because it involves injecting ink into the think layer of tissue that covers your eyeball. The injected ink then spreads throughout the eyelid, however, there is a risk that it could spread beyond the injection sites, and cause permanent damage.

Eyeball tattooing has been banned or restricted in some countries, and many tattoo artists are uncomfortable with carrying out the procedure. "Just be yourself. It’s their problem if they don’t like your art!". "I bet they’ll accept you no matter what!" another said. "Love the tattoos...it's you being you," a third commented. "Why? Just be you - if they don't like you as you are, tough!" someone else said.
