Dress is Appropriate
I tend to have an issue some times with wondering how I should dress. There’s a certain amount of costuming that’s stereotypically associated with this profession. Often people think of fortune tellers and they imagine a gypsy with huge hoop earrings, head scarves, lots of bangles and flowing clothes, perhaps even a shawl tied around the neck, hands covered in huge rings.
I’m not like that.
It’s not as though I wander around all day in boardshorts either, but I have a certain style of dress. I’m kind of casual, and often I wear jeans and those “ironic t-shirts” or I tend towards the more gothic style of clothing. The main thing about me is that I have multi-colored hair, right now it’s mostly red and purple with a bit of blue, but I have plans to go green, blue and purple in the not too distant future. I love making my hair multi-colors…which is great when you work from home but when I worked in an office they didn’t always like blonde and red streaks let along the fit they had when I mentioned that I loved blue hair.
Ah, well…if people have a problem with it I guess they just won’t come here, but it makes me wonder how people on guru.com will see me…ah, well. I’m not losing anything if they don’t.
