In an interview with What’sTheJam, Amber shared her motivation behind getting her eyes tattooed for the second time. She said, “For me, it was about taking back what’s mine and was supposed to be mine in the first place. I felt robbed and like I didn’t deserve a proper procedure. But I do deserve to have my moment, where I open my eyes and see true beauty.” Seeing her newly tattooed eyes fills her with happiness and appreciation, as it represents what it should have been from the start.
Amber prioritized her safety during the procedure. After her previous experience, she consulted with optometrists who confirmed that her initial eyeball tattoo was poorly done. Determined to avoid any further complications, Amber chose vegan ink and ensured she remained still throughout the 20-minute procedure. With great care, she successfully completed the process without any signs of scar tissue.
While the first procedure was described as the most excruciating pain Amber had ever experienced, the second time was painless. She believes that this was how it was supposed to be and expresses her gratitude towards her body modification artist for guiding her throughout this transformative journey. Finally, after seven years, Amber feels that she has achieved what she truly deserved.
Amber’s story serves as a testament to her resilience and determination to reclaim her sense of beauty and self-expression. Despite the risks and challenges, she remains committed to embracing her unique appearance. Her inspiring journey reminds us all that true beauty is not defined by societal norms but by the authenticity and confidence that comes from being true to oneself.
