Face tattoo after first date

Would you get a face tattoo? Certainly they are most controversial type of body art. That didn't stop a young Russian girl allowing her same day boyfriend to tattoo his name in five inch lettering across her face. You've probably seen it already, but if you haven't, read the full story here.

Quite why he wanted to carry out this shocking tattoo is one thing, but quite why she let him is another!
