Hello thanks for your question.
The general rule with tattoos is that if a tattoo is visible on a passport photo then it will be deemed as unacceptable. Tattoos on the neck and hands are acceptable but most soldiers do keep their saluting hand clean as a sign of respect.
Without seeing your tattoos I can't give you a confirmed answer so I would advise you to go into your local careers office so they can see and determine if your tattoos are acceptable enough for you to re-join. For more information, visit https://apply.army.mod.uk/how-to-join/can-i-join/tattoos-and-piercings
I hope this helps
