I do not have any children, maybe I will feel differently when I do...

That's fair. I think you will.
No parent or "child" is perfect. Our three look back now at some of the things they did when they were younger and just shake their heads.
Trying to put myself in this father's place, I see a young adult making a lifetime decision that he may really regret later and be able to do nothing about it. As a stupid possibility (but the only one I can think of at the moment), what if this young man wants to become a career lifeguard and employers don't allow brands or tattoos? (OK, I admitted it was stupid)
I wish I could undo some of the things I did against my parent's wishes. You only learn that with time and hard knocks.
