Would you be upset if you went to a 'trendy' hairdressers and were offered the salon's frump as a stylist?

That's what really gets me about the headscarf case - the girl is a frump; headscarf or no headscarf! It's absurd and surely opens the way for any frumpish girl to complain about not getting a job as a stylist / model / product demonstrator / whatever...Would you be upset if you went to a 'trendy' hairdressers and were offered the salon's frump as a stylist?
I wouldn't have her near me! If she/he doesn't look good and can't be bothered to dress/do their hair then i'm the paying customer and will go elsewhere!Would you be upset if you went to a 'trendy' hairdressers and were offered the salon's frump as a stylist?
Yes, i think you're right. Thanks for choosing my answer!

The whole case is absurd. The woman who ran the hairdressers should be able to employ whoever she feels will best represent her business.


In any interview, employers take a lot of notice or your appearance and whether it fits in with the job you are applying for. That`s only natural, and in some lines of work appearance matters more than others!!


If the girl wants to wear a headscarf, in day to day life,then fine, but it`s hardly projecting the right image for your average hairdressers is it??
I would give the girl with the headscarf a wide berth, its a bit of a contradiction, covering her own her hair, yet training for a career, dressing other woman's hair!!. Take the scarf off woman and live like the woman you are, hair and all. Then you can do my hair.By the way , looks do matter, I would have no confidence in a hairdresser or beautician, if she looked scruffy, and had no pride in her appearance.
If she was a good hairdresser and knew what she was doing I would be quite happy to have the frump rather than the atractive airhead who had just done a year's training at the local further education college and leaves clients looking as if she had attacked their hair with a knife and fork!
Why are you getting so wound up about a headscarf? Let the girl wear what she wants, she's only cutting your hair for goodness sake and she must be qualified to do so! If you're shallow enough to judge by appearance then find another salon.





Add: Judge John...she doesn't have to muslim to wear a headscarf. It could be a bandana style one? Just saying... =]
Considering the price, it is totally unreasonable to expect customers to accept a girl with a headscarf as their stylist.


This is not discrimination, just common sense.
I fail to see how even being a hairdresser in such a salon can co exist with her obviously stident religious beliefs.





I that the beautification of women and displays of vanity were forbidden for muslim women.
Well the whole matter is silly. Quite right imo frumpy!





I dont do frumpy!!!





I will be interested to see what comes up in ';girlie'; magazines (can u imagine it nothing but a headscarf!!!!!!!!!!!) lol. Penthouse look out.
people are hurt for gas money, did you hear about the guy who got glued to a toilet seat at home depot, or the women who got hurt in the eye from a thong from VS. lol desperate people for desperate times
