Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

I just got my hair done, all blond on top %26amp; dark brown under neath. My boss said I have to talk to him about my job %26amp; my new hair style b/c he does not like it. I think that he is going to try to get me to change it or treaten me with my job, CAN HE DO THAT??? If he can not then I WILL NOT CHANGE it back. I am a grown woman %26amp; don't feel the need to have permission to color my hair.



it is not pink, blue or any other crazy color. It is not sticking up like a mowhawk or anything crazy like that. He is just old school %26amp; does not like the change.

Unless you have a contract or MOU then you can be fired for any reason at anytime as long as it is not based on race, religion, sex, color, etc etc etc.....



So yes, you can be fired for your boss not liking your hair color. I think it is good that he/she is going to talk to you about it, and giving you a chance to change it. It shows they want to keep you as an employee as long as you are willing to change.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

Yes.



Remember that having a job is nothing more than an agreement between you and your employer.

He can do whatever you agreed to when you sought his employ.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

Is there a company policy?



He should be able to set the terms of your employment, but you should know the terms ahead of time.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

It depends if your company has a dress code. If they do, I would recommend that you study it carefully before you meet with your boss.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

Unless you are covered by a contract, you can be discharged at any time, for any reason, or for no reason at all.



If he thinks your hair style is a distraction, that is sufficient reason.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

If there is a company policy in place and you were aware of it prior to being hired, like, for eg, if it's in the company manual. Also, most states are at will employment states which means employment can be terminated at any time for any reason, of chourse, there are discrimination laws in place, but companies can have policys reguarding employees hair styles. The National Labor Relations Board is the place to contact for employer issues. You could always try to start a union.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

Yes he can. If you work directly with the public and you are not representing the company in the light they feel is appropriate, you betcha you can lose your job.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

YES -Especially if you dyed your hair from blond to brown - it shows u r stupid cause blonds have more fun!!!!!



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

Yeah, but that's why I believe "Right to Starve" states should be unconstitutional. If the people had a way to a real union, this wouldn't happen.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

I think bosses can fire you for just about anything now a days. Almost all employers have a dress/appearance code; violate that and you have to find another job that does allow it.



Can you lose your job b/c of your hair color/style???

yes, most likely you can be fired for your hair, unless you are black or some other minority and you can argue that your hair is tied to your ethnicity.
