How do I wear my hair for an interview?

hah - so will this be moved to career OR fashion?!?!

I have 2 interviews tomorrow and 1 on Wednesday for my first "real job". I've been working at the same place for the past 4 years (all through college).

I'm wearing a professional yet fashionable herringbone jacket and black pants, closed-toe black pumps.

I'm not sure how to wear my hair. Its long - down to my bra strap - naturally wavy, doesn't withstand humidity too well. It really doesn't look so nice this length, but I need it to be long for my wedding. Trust me - its getting cut (and donated) shortly after!!!

It does NOT look professional down.

Need some suggestions, please!

Thanks a lot - and wish me luck, I'm a little nervous Chat Icon

slick it back in a bun and add swooped side bang (if you have the bang layer)

All kidding aside - neat and down is nice, or a loose low bun if your hair is long enough!

good luck!!! Chat Icon

A low ponytail would work too. Wear it a way that you won't have to fuss with it and that gives you confidence.


BUT every picture I have seen of you with your hair down looks great and I think it would be fine that way unless you are interviewing for a super conservative job and I hope that's not the case bc you seem too fun for that BS! Chat Icon

Re: How do I wear my hair for an interview?

I would go conservative. Pony tail, bun or well groomed and "done" if let down.

Re: How do I wear my hair for an interview?

ok - I'll either go with the low pony tail or bun...thanks for the compliments, but I just don't think it looks very nice down at this point. especially because my jacket is a little less conservative, I'd rather go more conservative with my hair.

and to the bald poster...w t f?!?!?! Chat Icon

I love your hair and love it down. Can you blow it super straight or flat iron?

I made sure I combed it out super straight, then did what the video showed. Then to dress it up, I added my Thomas Knoell flowers.

I think it looks fine down. If you're doing a ponytail, I would flip it inward so it looks like a chignon.

Thank you Chat Icon I'm going to flat iron it tonight and play.

I'm not OK with it down...I agree with you, Beth - I always play with it when I'm nervous, and it's HOT. No matter how much I flat iron, it curls up when it's humid.

I would go for this too. But anything pulled back looks professional, IMO.
