Ephemeral Remy, who has reportedly spent $96,000 on his tattoos, has shared an ‘unrecognisable’ throwback photo from before he began his inking journey 11 years ago… The vast majority of us have a rather measured appreciation of tattoos. Maybe you have none, or maybe you have a few – but that’s usually the extent of it.
However, there are certain individuals who take their love of inking to the extreme. Not only does this offer some rather distinctive personal styles, but also leads to some truly fascinating before shots. We’ve already seen ‘Black Alien’, who used to be a ‘very sexy guy, and ‘Britain’s most tattooed woman’ with her inks covered up. And now a dad who has apparently spent $96,000 covering 96% of his body has shared his own ‘unrecognisable’ throwback photo… Remy, known on Instagram as @ephemeral_remy, is a Canadian father and ex-chef turned tattoo influencer. He’s previously opened up about how people judge his parenting based on his appearance, telling News Rebeat: “Tattoos and piercings haven’t changed at all, so I wasn’t worried that my son would see me differently.” Remy has also explained to the Mirror that people have even questioned whether he should be a father, claiming: “I’ve had a few people say things like my son should be taken from me because of how I look, but this is only ever online.” He continues: “My argument to that would be that if you think that way, you should never have children yourself.”
