Bald heads don’t care. Also cutting your hair extends to beards as well some people find them as a aggressive on black men.

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
Depends on the organization.
My homie works at McDonald's corporate as a senior manager and his hair is like Jay-Z's now. Dude isn't in marketing or HR either.
Some organizations are outdated with their view on hairstyles...I believe UPS just started letting you have facial hair.

of course kevin samuels would subscribe to this antiquated bullshyt. his entire hustle is built around convincing people that he's always in the know based in large part on the visual he presents to you.
thank you. of course you have to worry about your appearance in an industry where success is determined in part by face-to-face interactions with potential clients/consumers. but even then, the smart companies have already shifted their approach, acknowleding their best chance of engaging those consumers is by hiring people who have credibility when speaking to them.
why cater to the dinosaurs that dont understand this? if you're stuck at one of these places, save your bread, bide your time and use the experience to find an opportunity that's a better fit for you. fukk 'em.

Most of these corporate dress codes aren’t even in play anymore. Depends on your office and career.
When I got my first corporate job back in 2005 I had to wear a tie everyday, no earrings or bulky men’s jewelry. Now? The only time ties and suit jackets are mandatory is for headshots.
10 years from now well all be wearing those Star Trek onesies and working from home.

Ive had locs for 10 years, been in my career almost 13.
Its never been a problem
But I keep my hair neat and well groomed.

I’ve seen both sides. When I started, it was unspoken rule that you shouldn’t have dreads/cornrows on a “serious” job interview, and definitely no tats exposed. No one said it. But you knew. And because I wanted to be taken seriously I thought I had no choice but to go along with it.
Looking back on it, I’m disappointed in myself for conscribing.
I have at least 3 inches of beard on my face now. An arm covered in ink. No one gives a shyt. And if they do, I’d be happy to make a movement out of their discriminatory hiring practices.
seriously. fukk anyone still perpetuating this “gotta look a certain way to be taken seriously” bullshyt. Stop letting these people think it’s their place to dictate the rules of engagement. It feeds into the entitlement they already think is their birthright.
