An Australian model claims she is having trouble landing a job. Why? She believes it\u2019s because she has tattoos covering 99% of her body. The majority of the media attention given to Queensland-born Amber Luke has focused on her tattoos and other body alterations.<\/p>\n
She spent nearly $250,000 on her appearance so it\u2019s not surprise that she gets the moniker \u201cDragon Girl.\u201d Sadly, despite all of this investment, Amber seems to be having trouble finding work.
\nDespite the fact that Australia is a progressive country overall, it seems she can\u2019t get a job.The tattooed model mentioned on the Robin, Terry & Kip radio show in Brisbane:<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not going to sugar coat it, it has limited my employment options but that\u2019s okay. Because the way I see it, I don\u2019t want to work for a company that\u2019s shallow-minded and can\u2019t look past my image. They won\u2019t look at my work ethic, they won\u2019t look at my morals or my values, or what I have to bring to the table.\u201d[2]<\/p>\n
Heavily tattooed model finds it challenging to land a permanent job<\/p>\n
Unfortuantely, people have been rather blunt when giving their opinions.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone has their own opinions of what beauty is. You see these cultures where people stretch their necks, their ears, and their lips. But at the end of the day, we all are entitled to our opinion and that\u2019s okay.<\/p>\n
But, what gets to me is when someone expresses their opinion to me in public and comes up to me and says, \u2018Oh, you\u2019re ugly\u2019, or \u2018You\u2019ve ruined yourself\u2019 It is very distressing to know that people have that strong opinion and they can just voice it without any repercussions.\u201dThe tattooed beauty went on to say that nobody was harmed or injured by her tattoos. Despite the model\u2019s fans\u2019 requests for her to quit tattooing herself, she now feels successful. She asserts that the cost of her physical changes has been completely justified because she has proven to be highly robust.<\/p>\n
But the procedure wasn\u2019t painless. Luke claims that as she inked her eyeballs, she sobbed with vivid blue tears. She then inked a tattoo of it onto her chest to remember it. It\u2019s interesting to note that while she claims getting her eyeballs tattooed completely put her off of body modifications, it\u2019s not entirely true. Since then, she has undergone several changes, including butt lifts and breast augmentation.Amber Luke has undergone extensive surgery.<\/p>\n
Amber released a photo of herself before her change in 2020. And it goes without saying that this created a lot of buzz on Instagram.<\/p>\n
The caption read, \u201cWe\u2019ve all got to start somewhere. This was me at 18 years old. I was so catatonically depressed, suicidal, and was a walking dead girl. I was numb. I hated myself a majority of the time- that hatred ran deep. It tormented me. Now, I\u2019ve totally transformed myself into someone I\u2019m proud of being. I\u2019m a strong woman who knows exactly what she wants and who she is.\u201dShe also discussed the risky process she underwent to get tattoos on her eyeballs.<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t even begin to describe to you what the feeling was like, the best thing I can give you is once the eyeball was penetrated with the ink, it felt like the tattoo artist grabbed 10 shards of glass and rubbed it in my eye. That happened four times per eye, that was pretty brutal. Unfortunately, my artist went too deep into my eyeball. If your eyeball procedure\u2019s done correctly, you\u2019re not supposed to go blind at all. I was blind for three weeks. That was pretty brutal.\u201dThis tattooed woman is also pleased with her teeth, which are another body modification. She thinks they highlight her dragon eyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cI look at my mouth now and I\u2019m like \u2018Holy c***, it\u2019s so icy and blinged out and I\u2019m so happy about everything I\u2019ve done to my teeth. I originally got my fangs extended and sharpened but a month later, I wasn\u2019t happy with how short they were. I went back and got them extended and sharpened again, which set me back $1,000 AUD as there was more material used and my private health didn\u2019t cover me as much as they did the first time.\u201c<\/p>\n
\u201cMy VVS white gold tooth, which is permanent, is fixated next to my fang. It\u2019s a veneer with a flawless pave finish and cost me $5,000 AUD for one singular tooth.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
