A Russian woman let her new ‘boyfriend’ tattoo his name across her face – less than 24 hours after they first met.
The woman, named only as Lesya, allowed tattoo artist Rouslan Toumaniantz to ink the word ‘Ruslan’ on her in giant Gothic script. The tattoo-mad former art student, from Saransk, also had “All For Love” inked above her eyebrow.
They say they are now “head over heels in love,” and engaged, with Lesya already taking her future husband’s surname. It is not the first time that Toumaniantz’s handiwork has hit the headlines.
In 2009, he was accused of tattooing 56 stars on 18-year-old Kimberley Vlaeminckin’s face when she was asleep at his Tattoo Box studio in Coutrai, Belgium. His alleged victim claimed she just wanted three stars near her eye. But a week later she confessed that she had lied as she was scared of how her father would react.
