Australian model Amber Luke, extensively tattooed with almost 99% coverage, has discussed the challenges she faces in securing traditional modeling jobs due to her unique appearance. Nicknamed “Dragon Girl” for her striking tattoos, Luke spent over $25,000 on body modifications, including tattoos on her eyeballs. However, these tattoos have limited her career options within the industry, notorious for its specific model preferences.
Appearing on Brisbane’s “Robin, Terry, and Kip” radio show, Luke admitted that her distinctive look hasn’t been as financially rewarding as she anticipated. She acknowledges that her tattoos have narrowed her employment prospects. Despite this, she doesn’t regret her decision and values her principles, work ethic, and morals over conforming to industry norms.
Luke is unapologetic about her appearance and believes that beauty is subjective. She’s unfazed by negative comments from strangers about her looks. Her journey includes a challenging eyeball tattoo that temporarily affected her vision, leading to a symbolic tattoo of a crying woman on her chest.
