...Having your hair forced from you? I sometimes have this fear that one day I am going to come into work and being told to chop it all off or else. Yet I don't think this would never happen as I am very valuable to my organization and my organization would be limping along if I left. Not to mention that there are other guys with long hair at my job as well.
I also have the fear of my family and friends getting on my back about my hair like they did when I tried to grow it out twice. This first time I was force to get it cut as I was a teen. My Sister is going to be getting married and I fear that my hair will be brought up.
In reality, it will be MPB that will take my hair from me.
Well, the thing is, the only way anyone can force you to cut your hair is if they literally jump you and start cuting. Or by gunthreat or something.
Otherwise, if they just nag and bitch about the hair, all you need to do is to put your foot down and stand your ground. 99% of the times people will stop if you just tell them that you dislike their naging and make everything clear. People don´t want to be at war with you, so if they know you hate something, they will avoid doing that.
I´d say that complaints has more to do with how you act and less with how you actually look. I mean, you see people with crapy hairstyles and or clothes everyday. Are you going to tell all those people how bad they look? Hell no! That´s just a waste of time and feelings. The difference now is that people actually know you, and believe that it´s okay to complain. The fact is, it´s not.
