For instance, nose piercings, tattoos, and red hair. How are these viewed by employers? Will these attributes make me unhireable? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) This should depend on your actual location. I was discussing this with my CT a week ago. USFSP requires that men wear fancy pants (I don't remember the formal term, just that khakis fit) and a shirt with a collar. My CT one day said that I can come to school in jeans if I'm wearing a school shirt on top (collar or T-Shirt) and I explained that I wasn't actually allowed to do that per USFSP standards. Contact whoever is in charge of your position and inquire about this. To answer the actual question being asked, I believe - Nose piercings are a no - Tattoos are *probably* a no but you could probably cover it up and get away with having them - Red hair is a natural hair color so I don't think a school could get away with punishing a teacher for having red hair, natural or dyed.
