Unfortunately your parents are close-minded in the sense that they won't even give a reason for their dictatorship.
Fortunately, you can use that to your advantage.
Don't rush into the argument, ask them if you can talk to them and stay as calm and quiet as possible.
Look and feel responsible, as if you know what you are talking about.
Get your facts together. Perhaps there is a very successful person with a seemingly 'unprofessional' accessory? Bill Gates has a tattoo, who knew! And also get proof with pictures.
Look up all the health risks, statistics of how many people in the country have snakebites, etc.
Go into the argument not aimed to win, but aimed to show your parents you are a decent person and that snakebites are decent.
Also use the argument-
The world is changing. Pretty soon snakebites will be everywhere. What if in the future I have a boss who has snakebites. Then what would you say?
Also consider their childhoods. Ask them-
You must have wanted something when you were a kid and your parents said no. They must have thought it was inappropriate but it was part of the style. Remember I'm growing up in a different time than you, just as your parents grew up in a different era than you did.
Even if you lose, remember when you are 18 you are free. Don't be too disappointed. You won't die without them. Also physical appearance isn't the hugest deal. You can still be happy, no matter what.
