I assume there's plenty of long-haired men on this forum, so I decided to start up this dicussion.

I'm a junior college student, male, with hair down to my shoulders. In the small South Jersey town I grew up in, no one really cares if guys have long hair, and I would highly doubt getting employed would be a big issue outside the corporate office. However, since coming up to State College, PA for school, I've been knocked left and right by employers and regular people (which around these parts is 99% fratboys) for having long hair, despite keeping it neat and tied back during interviews and such. So much for liberal college campuses. As I'm planning to become a professor by continuing research with a PhD, I doubt I'll have many problems in the future if I keep it, since the majority of hired longhairs I've seen are in education and research.

Has anyone else in the long-hair community dealth with problems in finding employment? Maybe Joe and Arejay have had similar problems outside the band? =p Share your stories!
