Need Locked Wearer Feedback About Workplace Experiences

I hope you all can help me. I'm working on an article about wearing locked styles in the workplace. I'd like to get the perspective of people in a variety of professions.
Were you concerned about how your hair would be perceived? What kind of feedback do you receive from co-workers, management? Do you believe your hair has an impact when job-searching?
Please let me know if you or anyone you know would be willing to share their experiences with me.

Lull...

These days I've been more concerned about what's going on in my head than on top of it. So I haven't been blogging. I tried to come up with some vaguely hair-related topic to write about, but it would be half-assed. I wouldn't want to write it and you wouldn't want to read it. Something's afoot and I'll have some clarity by this time next week. Sorry about the unintentional cliff-hanger.
