Good gal Christine Magee.
Cares about supporting worthwhile causes.
Doesn't insult everyone's intelligence by pretending that dying her hair pink accomplishes anything.
Given the context of this thread and your use of the term 'wacky', I took your post to mean that you dyed your hair unnatural and ridiculous colours, and thus that is how I am responding. If you meant wacky as in "I dyed my hair a dark natural red when I have been a natural light blonde for ages, but I'll never tell - tee-hee, that's L'Oréal Paris!" then I apologize.
I had dark blue, fire engine red, that blue-black colour that all the depressed kids used to dye their hair (not that I was, I just felt like doing it). I once did my hair bleached blonde then dyed it blue so it was a translucent blue, which was all kinds of crazy when you stood out in the sun and the shadow of your head had this weird blue lighting effect to it.
At the end of the day, I cannot see any occupation short of something in the vein of cosmetology (hair/esthetics) that would view my translucent blue hair in a professional light.
If I went to meet with clients every day and I showed up wearing my comfy but well-worn jeans, white DC skate shoes, and a T-shirt with a picture of a duck or some stupid thing on it, I would immediately leave a terrible first impression which would undoubtedly marginalize me and possibly my company in the eyes of this client.
Nothing I'm wearing is offensive, so how is this different than wearing a suit and tie, or even dressy jeans, with a button up and a sport-coat? It's a matter of presenting yourself as a professional and as someone who takes what they are doing seriously.
Do you think, even if styled to a less 'edgy' look, the hair colour below is in any way 'professional'?
Why stop at hair colour alone, how about this style?
Or this style, which must have been invented for those of us who have to spend a lot of our time in meetings?
Do you think a CEO or VP would walk into work one morning with a bright red mohawk? Even just a short one? Why not? Maybe he's a really cool, hip CEO.
