Grrr CX Tattoo policy

Hi everyone! May I ask if I have a tattoo on my forearm (which can be covered by a long-sleeved uniform). Will I be able to pass the Cadet test?
Because I noticed that over 99% of CX pilots and those cadet pilots training in Australia are wearing short-sleeved uniforms all the time.
I doubt that if they provide and allow me wearing a long-sleeved to cover it.

It would be lovely if you guys can give me some suggestion!

Cheers!

Long sleeves are an option with the uniform, and there are several pilots who wear long sleeves due to forearm tattoos.
Your best bet would be to apply, and ask for further information upon contact with recruiting department.

I have seen a several videos from Captain Obet on youtube who is a CX Captain.
I do see that some of the pilots from CX wear a long sleeve uniform.
Just wondering whether you are stating the above point from your experience working in Cathay?
