guest12972	Hello! I will be going to China for college in the fall, but am from the U.S. I'd really like to know what the Chinese people as a whole think about a few things, such as... people with red hair? women wearing a bit of eye makeup? women with belly button piercings? working out, possibly at a gym? high heels? jewelry (diamonds and such)? black clothing (such as sweater dresses and such)? bright pink clothing? designer purses? Just very curious! Any input would be great to hear :-)

The older generation might frown at unusually placed piercings and would show a greater appreciation for modesty, however the youth are, by and large, empowered, fashion conscious and prone to rebeilious behaviour. I do think, though, that everyone will just love the red hair. Particularly if it's a really vibrant red.
