My school doesn't allow visible tattoos but my three are at or near the should on my right and left shoulders. Shorts sleeves or rolled up long sleeves are no problem as they are still covered. The place I got 2 of them done here in Harbin is the cleanest I have ever seen anywhere. The guys WC was cleaner than most shops I had wandered in to back home. Will post pics of my artwork later tonight.

Got the pictured work done at this place.

Che Guevara was rmb 1500 the Cuban flag with the mountains, trees, and tobacco barns/leaves was rmb 2000. A lot of cash but the guy is amazing, clean, and thorough. Both times I had my ideas but he had better ones to improve my designs.

Nikster!

Um, yes, they will.  Besides ear tats would hurt like hell!

Nik, I know I sound like a mom or something but you are fairly young. Who knows what career path you may want to take in the future and someday those ear tats may not seem like such a good idea.

yesh your probably right,and what you say makes perfect sense. but i have a habit of not listening to sound advice Smiley i feel that if it was REALLY objected to and i REALLY wanted the job/interview etc i could put make up or somthing to cover it. I have had my heart set on this idea for amny years . Smiley

Friend of mine had a mohawk haircut.  His workplace asked him to wear a hat until it grew out.  You could end up having to wear a beany in the hottest of summers.   th_k th_k th_k   th_ah th_ah

And for Chinese bosses, looking respectable is pretty important, especially if you are working in private unis, schools, or language mills.  Parents still see - especially in some of the less 'sophisticated' areas that tatts are related to criminals.  Slowly changing, more acceptance of 'regular' tatts, but weird places, piercings etc still make you less marketable.

Nik, I think Babs nailed it.  At present all your tats can be covered with pants and a long sleeved shirt.  Leave your neck, hands and head au natural, or you lose the ability to control your image.  Sooner or later you'll have a situation where you'll need to look clean cut.

If you ever have ambitions of teaching in a place like Thailand, you don't want exposed tats/piercings or wild hairstyles...the bias against such appearance factors gets much stronger down that way.

Of course, I guess if you wanted to dress as a woman, that would be cool... th_bi

Yeah, you would know.
Which is more than I can say about your understanding of the QUOTE tag.
Or your ability to stay on topic.(eye-roll smilie badly needed here)

The "quote" tag was seriously out of whack this morning. I edited three times, but it still persisted in making up it's own mind.
Off-topic, my arse! You mentioned Thailand. I merely expanded the warning!!

I mentioned teaching there, you silly man. Your arse is always  off-topic.

But I'm sure the problem was the tag, not the editing. th_ah
