currently my hair is natural and just to save the potential drama, i slap some gel in it and pull it back. i too am nervous about people's viewpoints in the workplace. but while im looking for the job, i rather be as conservative as possible and then pull out the big fro after i get the gig.
its sad that hair is still an issue for some folks,.
