I actually just now, like 5 minutes ago, finished my online work Harassment training and your face looking like a truck stop bathroom isn’t a protected class. They could absolutely say facial tattoos are unprofessional, with the exception on if the tattoos had religious significance.
Though yes just not saying anything is always the safest bet for hiring managers.

She very deliberately and repeatedly chose to look like that and present herself to the outside world in that manner. Yes, it's moral to judge her on it, and to make general assumptions about her character (even if perhaps not her moral courage) based on how she chooses to present herself.

I work in corporate recruiting and legal risk is exactly why. While lawsuits are rare you often get folks that want to debate or get offended. Companies don’t want to take the risk and it’s easier to just not provide detailed feedback.
Sucks because most people are appreciative but you just can’t tell.

Thank you. These Fact-Checks really ought to be locked as the top comment for all of this AI-slop.
In a world where bots and agents coordinate full posting and commenting on socials, these innocent and silly memes can and ARE often part of a much bigger picture. Whether it be astro-turfing ideas with questionable agendas, or further training AI by analysing human response to these memes en-masse; we are also being trained.
AI-slop is here to stay and is only going to get more refined, so fact-check and question the origins of what you see online (Something that should be done regardless of AI).
It's like that experiment with the chimps in the cage, with a banana on a ladder in its center. When the chimps go for the banana, a scientist sprays them all with a hose. The chimps quickly learn not to go for the banana, and attack any who do. Then a new chimp is brought in, and goes for the banana. Whenever he goes for the banana, he's viciously attacked by the other chimps, so he learns not to go for it, but never correlates WHY. Slowly, new chimps are brought in and the originals are removed. All the chimps get the same treatment and at this point none of them have ever been sprayed or even seen the hose. They just know not to go for the banana.
My point there being that like the chimps in the cage, humans very much display this kind of social adaptation. Across generations, this is why we see things like en-shitification, we just get used to and accept how things are, with no personal context for how things used to be.
It's why a company like YouTube can go from no ads, then 5 second but skippable ads, to now the current 2 minute long unskippable ads we see today. It just takes time.
This post turned into a bit of a tangent so for the sake of cohesion I'll boil it all back down to one word: AWARENESS!

But just moments ago I was thinking about how once I'm in that room waiting for my turn I'm probably going to start to second-guess the Jean choice.

I work in the food industry. We talk about hand tattoos. If some guy comes in with habd tattoos and zero experience.. eh. Bit of a red flag. Might be a no-call, no-show after his first paycheck.
Guy with hand tattoos and twelve years experience, giant green flag.
People who don't have tattoos can yawn about people with tattoos and unwritten tells about tattoos with context. But it's pretty easy to pick up, even if you didn't get any work done.
Garish sleeves that cut off riiiiiiight at the wrist? Good chance that's a high school pastor at a "new age and cool church." The sit backwards on a chair type.
Stuff like that.
Nautical star/web tattoo on the elbow? Born in the 80's, talks about the coke from the 90's
Lotta messy tattoos on the forearms? Self diagnosed mental illness.
Music note they drew themself? Basic white girl.
Mustache on the finger, married to basic white girl; promises he really liked Hamilton.
WoW Horde symbol? Doesn't shower.
WoW Alliance symbol, also doesn't shower, but probably MAGA.
These are broad generalizations, but pretty effective.
Only tattoo is a butterfly? Single mother with shared custody.
Black, messy tattoos from hand to shoulder? Death metal drummer, OR, wide receiver for the Broncos.
Face tattoos and white. Oof.. either they make great music or they know the lay-out of San Quinton and will make you hold their pocket.
Edit:
Silhouette birds on the shoulder? Thinks she peaked in college.
Book quotes? Wants to tell you they love to read.
Bible quotes? Doesn't need to tell you they didn't read the Bible.
Song quotes? Oddly enough, probably pretty chill.
Baby portrait? Domestic violence.
Baby portraits? Idk, that's your cell bunky, you figure out his story.
Marijuana leaves? "I remember when I had my first beer," recipient.
Star Wars tattoos? Happily married, his wife lets him have his corner of the house for his toys. Probably works in HR.
