When she was younger she had herself tattooed in several places, an action she now regrets. ‘I don’t like ‘em now because they make me look rough. I used to like that when I was a kid, but not now’ Now when she’s working she covers the tattoos on her thighs with tape. One of them includes a heart in which her name is linked with another girl’s.
