hair fashion

[wavyarms]

I know, I'm totally over-posting on LJ tonight, but I'm enjoying having an evening at home (which won't happen again for a week...ugh) and my VERY OWN STUDIO with a WORKING INTERNET CONNECTION.

*ahem* Sorry to holler.

Anyways, I have a fashion question. I have so far at school (both the middle school where I subbed, and the high school where I am permanently) avoided wearing my hair down - it's always been up in a bun, or at least back in a braid. I sort of feel that having my hair down is unprofessional. Am I crazy? I just feel that b/c it's quite blond, and quite long, it's sort of going "Look at me!" when I wear it down, and I don't really want to do that when I'm working. Also, I worry about differentiating myself from the high school students - I am totally waiting for the day when I get stopped in the hall and asked for my pass.

Thoughts? Should I keep on with this habit, or am I full of it?

I continually get it wrong as an engineer. In my life in NM, I am moderately well dressed, in the sense that my hair gets somewhat regular hair cuts and at times wear dresses. In my current life as a DC temporary worker, the other engineers find the flip flops a bit unusual.
