[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work with a rich, well dressed AA woman. I seriously don’t recognize her sometimes and I work with her daily. It’s crazy how much a different hair style changes your face or how much we use hair to differentiate people.

That being said- name tags are the answer. [/quote]

OP here, I'm also black and wear wigs regularly but I have several wigs that are all dyed to match my hair color (dark brown with some highlights) so my changes aren't as drastic as short and straight one day, long and curly the next. I see where the management is coming from but I also don't think they can make a determination like "no wigs" or "no hair changes".

You have the right to look any way you want. It is sexist, racist, and wrong. But, men gonna men and racists gonna racist! I am white, and at one workplace I had my hair blonde. I decided I had enough of it and dying it blonde. I am very fair, so the next day I showed up with hair dyed brown. It is common that when you dye your hair dark, it is very dark for the next couple of weeks. My boss had his teen dd work as the internet in my office and brought her that day! He said, here I told her she will work in a respectable office and you go goth. This was 12 years ago, and not much I could say that anybody would understand as to why this was wrong. I wore my usual slacks and nice tops and was around 38 years old.[/quote]
