Here is a fun little fact: In the work force, your hair and face are the first things that employers and clients notice…then wardrobe…and this all takes 3 seconds or less! Few people will want to do business with someone who looks grungy, sloppy, and unkempt. The bottom line, it’s just not professional. Don’t let a bad haircut and outdated appearance cost you the job, deal, or promotion. This applies to you too, entrepreneurs!
