This is just my gut sense of the PC tattoo policy.

Actually, its probably a good idea to call your recruiter because s/he will be the best resource here.. plus at this point they are pretty much neutral in a sense, meaning right now your qualification depends on what DC has to say about your status, etc. so your recruiter can be of utmost help still…

best of luck
