i got longish hair. about an inch 1 below the base of my neck. i want to work at a finance corps but these are conservative firms. how can i hide my hair? its not that long. but i dont want to trim it. any ideas?

[WanderingSoul]

Apply as a woman.

Cut it, hippie.

[Handsome Creepy Eel]

Ponytail, maybe? If you can pull off a sophisticated French look...

That said, I think it's ridiculous that a company would refuse you on the basis of your hair. How can that offend anyone?

[RawGod]

If you're serious, cut it. Machiavelli would approve, and so would Christian Bale in American Psycho.

It just occurred to me that if you wear an expensive custom suit, no one will notice your hair.

You have to pay to play.

See a stylist about how to make it look classy and not hippy, also see how he does it:

I might be able to help you here--I've had long hair many times in my life.

Is your hair curly, straight or wavy? Is it thin or thick?

Hiding it entirely is going to be a tall task but if you give me details, I may be able to make a suggestion about how to make it much less noticeable and understated.

If you're serious about long hair and getting the job, cut it to an acceptable corporate length and then let it grow out after you get the job. Make sure you read your company protocols and code of conduct. If they try to fire you, go to the HR department and say you identify as transgender.

Only half joking about the last part. If you got fired and it got media exposure, LGBT activists wouldn't know what to do with themselves.

good point. but the hair "forms" part of the suit, if u dig what i'm saying. in other words, they look at everything.

i dont like the way nacho's hair looks.. ewww. but i do like the hairstyle of john taylor from duran duran. but of course, shorter in the back would be appropriate.

yeah i hear u. i actually trimmed an inch in the back which is really a lot of hair. i might trim it a bit more tonite.

Yeah, I'm not holding my breath to observe this guy's career as an investment banker.

Just remember when you go to work for a company, it is not a democracy. You can complain and bitch all you want, but unless you have some giant lobby backing you like the femnazis or homos, you might have to cut your hair in order to get your foot in the door.

Hair grows back so just cut it short enough to get by and once you establish yourself then grow it back out.

[Hades]

This type of haircut would work. It's not exactly long but then again you get to keep your bangs pretty long, which in my experience take a lot longer to grow than the hair in the back.

We will never know. Is 11 posts the quickest ban record?

Not even close. Just yesterday julbez was banned with 2. Pretty sure there's been a ban with 1 but I don't remember the name. A ban with 0 posts would require some rather impressive trolling skills.

There's a ton of members banned with 0 posts: http://www.rooshvforum.network/memberlist.ph...75&page=56
