I am heavily tattooed and want to be a trucker

I am interested in becoming a truck driver and I am very heavily tattooed. I have both sleeves as well as the back of my hands and knuckles. I also have a small one on my face next to my eye. I knew employment would be an issue when I got my hands and face tattooed and I am ok covering them as I have had to do so for quite some time now but I was just wondering if it is as big an issue in trucking as it is in other career fields.
I know I will never work as a teacher or doctor looking this way and I am fine with that because I want to be an otr trucker like my dad and his dad before him.
SO any help with my question would be very helpful because I dont want to pay for cdl training and not be able to get hired anywhere
