I have a question for those in either management or HR. I'm going to a goth/industrial music festival in Germany in July, and I want to put dreadlock extensions in. Now, it's about 5 hours of work to braid them in, and I'd like to keep them as long as I can, not just for the weekend. My question is - will work be able to ask me to take them out? At present, I'm a teacher, but come the end of June, I will cease to be a teacher and become the full-time exams co-ordinator, meaning that I don't deal with the public at all. The main problem is that my immediate boss (not big boss, but supervisor) is my mother. She's very conservative, and has hated everything I've done to my hair in the past 5 years (including getting it layered so I don't look like something out of 'Little House on the Prarie' ) I have a feeling that my big boss is a little less bothered about such things, though.
I'm asking for opinions because I've looked on the staff intranet, and I can't find any HR guidelines which would prevent me from having extensions. They'll be mostly black, to match my natural hair, but with a few contrasting coloured ones. Mum hates the idea, but what would you do if one of your employees came in with dread extensions?
