A law enforcement officer and mother, you wouldn't expect Faith Houghton to be as covered in intricate tattoos and body art as she is. Indeed, her ink can sometimes get her in a pickle.

With a TikTok channel that has amassed tens of thousands of views, and where she goes as @f.autumn, Houghton shares all sorts of updates about her everyday life.

One particular theme is that people tend to stare at her when she drops her kid off at school.

While admitting that tattoos can be a great conversation starter, Houghton revealed that sometimes the way people approach her in public, especially when her kid is around, can make things uncomfortable.

"I’ve learned to take others opinions with a grain of salt," she said in the interview. "Often people share their mutual interest in getting ink and how much they personally like my work."

Sometimes, people criticize her tattoos and even accuse her of being a bad mother because of the many inkings that decorate her body.

"There are a few who deliver backhanded compliments or share their disinterest in my tattoos," Houghton shared.

"Having tattoos doesn’t make me a worse daughter, sister, mother, wife, or friend... My mother has never approved of my tattoos but has accepted that I will continue to be myself over everything else."
