Man tattoos his name across his lover's face Ruslan Toumaniantz, the tattooist, met Lesya in an online chat room in January this year. According to reports, the couple fell "head over heels in love," and decided to meet up in Moscow. He added: "I know that there are people who are terrified that Lesya has made a rash decision that she'll regret horribly, but sometimes the best decisions are the ones you make in an instant with your heart rather than the ones long-debated in your mind." Lesya's Facebook friends have supported her makeover, with one writing: "Sooo beautiful. Even the style of the name fits your face well. You must be so happy that you can wear that tattoo. Enjoy it. It looks great," wrote Ralf Bieler. Mr Toumaniantz has precedence in making headlines with his work. The tattoo artist gained international notoriety in 2009 after agreeing to tattoo 56 stars across an 18-year-old Belgian girl's face. The teenager initially claimed she had only asked for three stars, and that Mr Toumaniantz had added the rest whilst she was asleep. She threatened to sue, before later admitting that she had lied about the events in order to avoid her father's anger. Mr Toumaniantz fled the country after the incident.
