[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's fine (and I think it's fascinating how many women get so heated about this topic, really, insulting others because they have long hair? embarrassing behavior from adults), but [b]my office is a pretty granola place[/b]. Walking into my workplace with a french twist and a blazer would make you the odd one out.[/quote]

This really does matter. "Professional" isn't just one thing -- it's context-driven. My hair is longer than OP's, and I like enjoying it down, both how it looks and how it feels. That's not outside the norm for where I work, though.

I pull it back when there are logistical reasons to do so.[/quote]

Good point.

Here’s what I’ve noticed:

Most older women cut their hair short (bobs or chic boy cuts).

Most younger women have long hair with a center part. Some have funkier cuts (short, spiky, or bold color).

I’m in my 40s; not young, but not old. I’m not interested in chopping my hair off, but I think it needs to be shorter. I suspect fresh highlights/color will help.

Maybe glasses would make me look more distinctive on camera? I’m noticing lots of women who never wore glasses at the office are wearing them on zoom along with a bolder lip.

Still looking for style inspiration. [/quote]
