i shave my head for 3 reason, receding hair line, dandruff problem, and i look better with it in my eyes. but is shaved heads considered a no-no in job inverviews?? do the interviewers see you as some sort of gang banger?? i also have the option of wearing contacts or eyeglasses. which should i wear?
 
Not much you can do about it unless your interview is a ways off.

I have a shaved head as well, but I've never interviewed like that.

I don't see why it would be a problem, it's not like you have blue dreadlocks.

Shaved head is really bad...you should draw hair on with a sharpie before the interview. No time to use a mirror!!!

I wouldn't think its a problem. I have a friend who has no hair on his head whatsoever- I can't remember the name of the disease..
 
I've shaved my head for about 8 years now and have never had a problem getting a job because of it.

As long as you dress nice, it shouldn't hinder your looks unless you have a funny shaped head. 🙂
 
Dress nice, not like a gang banger.

Speak properly, not like a gang banger.

Don't act like a gang banger, and you probably won't be perceived as one.
