I have a general question about something i have heard time and time again. I am not American but i have lived here for the past 6 years. I never thought of my hair texture or skin color being something that would hinder my professional advancement in any way but since moving to the US i have heard many times that it is seen as "unprofessional" to wear natural hairstyles to the workplace. Is this really true? Or is this a lie or misconception we have bought into? Because i really can't believe it! I mean i know there is a lot of discrimination in the workplace whether based on gender, age, race or sexual orientation but surely hair texture isn't taken into consideration is it? Please help me understand!lol
