It won't affect his or anyone's work but not everyone likes to see graffiti on a person and if faced with it makes them judge a business or service just by the person they are dealing with.
That doesn't just happen to people with tattoos as usually businesses with people 'front of house' like the person to represent their ethos or present an acceptable person to all. IMO probably better to go with those who will receive the least criticism for who they represent, even if Tats are en trend.

Society adapts over time, and things that were not acceptable can become acceptable, but the 'time' bit is the important part.
When I was in my teens and twenties, the only men (and it was only ever men) who had tattoos were current or ex forces members who had them done abroad, usually on a drunken night out. Tattoos were seen as an indication of a trouble, a lot of pubs and clubs would not admit men with visible tattoos.
Now, in 2016, tattoos are far more common, and far more accepted, and there is a general perception that a tattoo is not a marker for violence.
But that does not mean that society will readily accept extreme tattoos just yet.
I am perfectly sure that the gentleman is a wonderful human being, but the issue is that a lot of people with whom he interacts may well see him as odd or peculiar.
That doesn't make this situation right, but it does make it the way things are, and people who choose to adorn themselves to extremes must accept that not everyone will be comfortable with it, or willing to interact in a professional environment.

It doesn't affect his ability to work presumably but if anyone wishes to do this kind of thing to themselves, they too have to accept that some people won't like it. Fine if you don't want a job dealing with the general public, but he should have been aware of his job limitations today and not EXPECT everyone he comes into contact with, will admire and like his tattoos. It works both ways, if you want to do this then looking abnormal to some people when it's done through choice is not always going to be accepted.
