pole and dreadlocks?

I have also held employment that is coporate and scientific with dreads. I have been evaluated on my qualifications and performance… as it should be.

@JeHanne, I agree and you are fortunate to have worked at such a place. But that is not how it flies at my place of employment. I found Academia to be more open minded about appearance when I was in Research. I am hoping to be done working in this arena the next 2 years so I will not longer have to worry about it : )

Hi OzarkSiren, yes each place will have their own requirements. I hope soon you have the freedom to express yourself in any way you choose. 🙂

I've had mine for about seven years now and no one has ever said anything to me about them as far as employment goes, but at the same time, I guess employers might fear retribution from telling me that my hair is unacceptable. It's neat and it's clean and I've never had a mold or bacteria issue, (and here's another but) but, I've never had to use any product to get my hair to loc.
Anyway, rock out with your locs out as Wild Lotus said! 🙂

thanks everyone! i value all of your opinions. unfortunately dreads have gotten a bad reputation due to peope not taking care of their hygeine. i have seen plenty of gross, dirty ones as well as beautiful, clean, well cared for ones. they do require care and time if you want them to look nice. as stormcat mentioned, people who have "dirty" dreads often have other cleanliness and hygeine issues. anyway, i plan on taking good care of mine…
