tattoo is called "Wen Shen" or "Ci Shen" in Chinese. The term means literally "puncture the body".tattoo has been known and practised in China for many years. But it was never considered to be something artistic, desirable, or even acceptable. A commonly held notion is that one's body is a precious gift from the parent and therefore should never be abused or defaced by a tattoo.
Many years ago, when a court finds a person guilty of a severe crime, it may order a tattoo be placed on his face, and bannishes him to a far-way place for a number of years. The tattoo on the face permantly marks the person as a criminal. The two-prone punishment is called "ci pei" (tattoo/exile).In the present, tattoo are more likely to be used by members of the underground criminal society than ordinary citizens.
