Please answer my question. I want your opinions!

Probably a bad time to look for several answers. It's 2:00 in the morning here, so a lot of people probably aren't on right now. But I'll try anyways.

Well, I've always wanted to be a tattoo artist. I recently got Netflix, so I've been watching L.A. Ink for awhile and it's really getting me in the whole tattoo mood.

Here's my question: Do you think I'd have a lesser chance of acquiring a job at a tattoo parlor if I don't have a lot of tattoos?

And I mean like none. I'm hoping to get one or two but quite small. In all tattoo shows and real shops, you see the workers with so many tattoos. My mom says she laughs when she thinks about it because I'm like a small nerdy girl, and she imagines me tattooing someone with a lot of tattoos you know, like the tough guy type look. It makes me think that if I don't have enough tattoos, businesses won't take me seriously for the job.

Anyways, just wondering what you guys think because it's been on my mind for awhile now.
