Q: Trendy tattoo designs amongst young Chinese people?

Are their preferred designs similar to our in the west ("tramp stamps" and "misspelled chinese characters" , etc.), or do they have a different taste in ink?

I live in a small city, and I know there is a tattoo parlor here. I haven't seen many tattoos though. If people are getting them, I don't see them. I don't think getting a tattoo here would be "trendy."

You have a mixture of tatoo styles. There are a few older people who have the leftover classic style tats that were a symbol of criminal/gang/triads back in the day. You also have in the bigger more modern cities lots of young men and ladies who are getting the smaller more modern stylized type designs.

I saw quite a few women with tatoos on their shouder or upper arm. Usually kind of a tribal design or flower. And one girl had a dragon on her bisep.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
