There’s no answer here that you can trust or bank on. Just not how it works. Only thing I can say is that if I were hiring someone, I would take off points for blue hair. Nothing to do with conformity, but adults who are still trying to be anti-conformity or make a statement are just tiresome.

You don’t have to like my statement. I had blue hair once. And red. I was also a kid and only had something to prove to other kids.

There are tons of people here who’d see blue hair as a perk. Usually goes hand in hand with too many rainbow flags and stickers, or a penchant for working in the arts. But not everyone.

Edit: to follow up because I'm giving you a real answer - these down-votes and upvotes mean nothing. It's people railing against the system. It's proof that this sub is going to tell you something you want to hear but shouldn't accept, because you're asking the question for a reason. Do with that what you will, but the area is not what so many people make it out to be. They think that this blue state means everything's like we're living on one giant campus and college never ended. I'm trying to get you employed. They're trying to cope.
