Can a tattooist be Christian?

Aura
I was watching Ink master & found out a contestant is Christian. I mentioned it to my dad to which he replied "Tattoo artists can't be Christian because the bible states that putting tattoos on your body is against God's word." 
Leviticus 19:28 "Do not cut your bodies for the dead, and do not mark your skin with tattoos. I am the Lord."
 
I have plenty of friends at church who have tattoos & are still getting tattoos. Is this a generational controversy? I'm not sure what to think, but I don't believe that if you have a tattoo or like tattooing that you can't be Christian. Tattoos don't change the fact that you believe Jesus is your Lord & Savior.
