By the way, the guy who hired me complimented my locks and asked how I kept them looking so good.
You seem like you are set and confident. So what is the purpose of this thread?

I need to create a thread on what some think of long haired blondes...

The topic (for people who can't read) was dating people with dreadlocks. I didn't know this was the work and employment forum.

Working in IT, advertising, marketing, etc is very different from working artistic jobs. Have you acknowledged that? Remember though, I'm the ignorant one.

My point still stands. You don't set the standard.
You keep saying that, and I keep trying to tell you - I'm not the one trying to set the standard - I'm only telling you that there are standards. It is what it is....

Did you not write in your opening post "Are they a turn off to you?" ?

I simply answered your question and then went on to explain my answer. You also said "no flaming", so why are you trying to flame ME?

So the fact that they don't "look professional" (according to you) makes them a turn off? Do me a favor. Reread your post and see how much sense it actually makes.

No need, I know exactly what I wrote

In sum, I don't personally care for corn rows or dredlocks on adults - they are cutesy and something I think look great on kids or people on vacation in the Bahamas.

In the professional workplace some people may find themselves discriminated against if they insist on wearing their hair in what is seen my me, and many others, in this less professional look. I didn't say that was right, I just said it is what it is.

Nice try, but that is not what you stated before.
