When choosing a hairstyle what factors should white-collar workers keep in mind?
If you’re bored with your hair what are some things you can do to change it up?Consider highlights and low lights. That is a minimal way to give yourself a little pizzazz without having to change your hair drastically. If it is done properly it mimics natural hair color.

Are there any hairstyles that professional women should shy away from?I tell people all the time: A woman's hair is the first thing you hear before she speaks. Her hair will tell you a whole bunch of things about her before she even opens her mouth. It can tell you if she is edgy, professional, conservative, sexy, a diva, or glamorous.I wouldn’t suggest women wear bright colors like reds and platinum blonds when they are working in a professional environment because it [can be distracting]. But at the same time, I feel that women and men should not be judged by how they express themselves physically but by their work ethic and their skill in [their profession].

>Grooming Tip No. 4: Try to stay away from heat styling because it is damaging to your hair. Instead, use roller sets. “I call those two-for-ones,†says Wright. “If you get a roller set, it is tight, but as the days pass it starts to loosen up and fall into a whole other hairstyle.â€more
Grooming Tip No. 5: If you don’t have time to do it, put your hair in a ponytail. “There is nothing wrong with a cute, sexy, nice, neat ponytail,†says Wright. You can pull a side sweep bang, or put a little bump up top and smooth it back. Just don’t use rubber bands without material, Wright advises. The rubber will pull your hair and break it.more
