Tattooed gran, 56, flaunts incredible full-body ink that cost whopping £25K

A tattooed gran who has spent a whopping £25,000 on a full-body artwork has proudly shown off the "beautiful meadow full of flowers" that now covers her skin.

Kerstin Tristan, 56, has colourful, stunning designs depicting flowers and butterflies across her entire body, with a bit of animal print on her arms for good measure.

The grandmother, from Germany, shared her tattoos in a series of snaps on Instagram, as the Daily Star reports, and soon she was inundated with comments. Fans couldn't get enough of her designs, with many taking the time to heap praise on the inked-up gran.

She quickly got hooked on ink and has since forked out £25,000 on her body art collection that covers her from head to toe.

The granny feels a lot more confident in her skin nowadays.

She told Hooked on the Look: "When I look at myself in the mirror, I see a beautiful meadow full of flowers that one has to love."

Kerstin isn't the only one who loves her colourful look.

She boasts more than 188,000 followers on Instagram and is in the top 2% of creators on OnlyFans.

Meanwhile, a mum who describes herself as ' addicted ' to tattoos said she can't land a job thanks to her extreme look but she won't stop getting inked - and currently gets three new 'prison style' designs a week.

Melissa Sloan, 45, has ink all over her body, including bold designs with flowers and an England flag all over her face.

The mum-of-two, from Wales, said that her inkings are mainly done "prison style" by her boyfriend at home.

She has a big Kray twins piece inked on her leg, one dedicated to Playboy bunnies, and cartoon marijuana leaves on her head - and the collection continues to grow.
