    A PRIMARY school teacher who is tattooed from head to toe - even his eyeballs - says he won't stop until ink covers 100 per cent of his body.
    Sylvain Helaine, known as Freaky Hoody, admits some kids in his classes are scared of his extreme look but they quickly get used to it.

    He did not get his first tattoo until he was 27 and living in London, where he says he was inspired by body modification.
    After starting with a simple sleeve, he spent eight years and £35,000 getting more ink all over on his torso, limbs and face with a snake travelling down his skull.
    He also has tatts on his palms, the soles of his feet, his genitals and even gums and tongue.
    Two years ago he admitted he was unsure about having his eyeballs tattooed in case he went blind.
    But new pictures show he has taken the plunge, and the whites of his eyes are now a spooky black.

    Sylvain before he began his tattoo journey aged 27Credit: Social mediaSylvain says: "I will never stop getting tattoos. If you love it you don't count the money.
    "One day I will end up fully covered in black ink.
    "I will keep covering myself layer after layer, ending up black – not necessarily because I want to but because the more you cover the darker you get."
    "When you're passionate about something, it is never too much – as long as it doesn't hurt my health, I'll keep going for ever."
    Sylvain worked as a martial arts coach before turning to teaching 12 years ago.
    'JUST A REGULAR GUY'

    As a supply teacher, he often works in primary schools where people have not met him before - which can raise some eyebrows.
    He says: "When parents don't recognise me, they are sceptical because they'd see me – a male teacher covered in tattoos on the playground – and it's weird for them.
    "Sometimes an old grandmother will see me in the playground and call my boss to say, 'Hey, who was that weird guy around the children?'
    "But as soon as they see I'm an intelligent teacher they are OK.
    "I'm just a regular guy, a schoolteacher – once they realise they should never judge a book by its cover, everything goes smoothly."
    Perhaps surprisingly, he says the young children are more comfortable than the grown-ups with his striking appearance.
    He says: "Some of the children are afraid when they see me, usually when they are younger, but it goes away really fast and after a couple of minutes they are fine.



    "They are more surprised because I'm a male teacher – not because of the tattoos."
    Despite the initial reactions to his appearance, teaching gives Sylvain a deep sense of fulfilment.
    He says: "What I like most about it is you can mould these young minds – you can try to make them a better person and help them to make the world a better place."

    It's probably illegal not to hire a primary school teacher simply because they have their eyeballs, tongue and gums tattooed black.

    There will be real consequences for doing that to his eyes. I will bet at some point he will go blind. Then the idiot will not be able to see any of his own tattoos. Unreal.

    To be fair, it does probably have some educational benefit to the kids.



    None are likely to get shitty tattoos when they're older.

    France's most tattooed man told not to teach nursery children

    France's most tattooed man has said he was told not to teach nursery school children after a parent complained about his looks.


    Sylvain Helaine has tattoos on his body, face and tongue, and has had his eyeballs surgically inked black.


    Mr Helaine, 35, still teaches primary school children aged six and older.


    He said the child whose parent complained was not taught by him, and that his own pupils were "cool" with his appearance because they knew him.


    "It's only when people see me from far away that they can assume the worst," he told Reuters news agency.

    Mr Helaine, who is also known as "Freaky Hoody", said he was teaching at a school in Palaiseau, near Paris, last year when a three-year-old child told their parents that they had nightmares after seeing him.







    The child's parents then complained to the educational authorities.


    Almost two months later, officials told him that he could no longer teach that age group - a decision Mr Helaine said was "quite sad".

    His tattoos, Mr Helaine said, could help teach pupils to accept people who did not look like them.


    He told BFM TV: "Children who see me learn tolerance of others. When they are adults, they may be less likely to be racist or homophobic, and they will not look at disabled people as if they were something from a circus."


    Mr Helaine estimates that he has spent about 460 hours under the tattooist's needle.


    This includes the procedure on his eyes, which he had to travel to Switzerland for because it is illegal to have it done in France.
