Most, who do that, would be better served by not drawing attention to their looks, IMHO. It often goes chubby hand in chubby hand with massive weight gain.

Broncos are officially the worst team in the nation this year.
If you owned a business and were trying to attract new customers would you put a neon colored hair freak with visible tattoos and face jewelry at the reception desk?
If you had a choice the answer is NO. Unless maybe your business is XXX videos and sex toys.
Why someone wants to devalue themselves and make a negative spectacle of themselves is beyond me. It is definitely a mental problem.
Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
There are certain realities in life. People tend to stereotype other people and you only get one chance to make a first impression. People judge other people by their appearance. Some things you can’t control, height, skin color, facial features and to some extent weight. There are some things you can control, tattoos, piercings, unnatural hair color, attire, etc. control the things you can and accept the things you can’t.

When I owned 5 convenience stores, we had a no visible tattoos policy because the stores were in a rural area with an older demographic who preferred it that way. Accommodating customers is good for business. We had people interview for positions who objected, but it was a requirement with no room for negotiations. We were threatened with law suits, but we had had 2 different law firms that specialized in employment law write/review all of our policies before implementing them. There was a little pushback at first, but when employees started cashing their profit sharing cheques most of them decided that following the rules wasn't so oppressive after all. The guy who bought the stores from me implemented his own policies that included eliminating our appearance codes, which the employees liked, and the profit sharing, which the employees didn't like.
I judge people all day long, every day, all year, by what they do, how they act, and how they look. It often saves me time, saves me money, saves me frustration, and may save my life. If folks want to defile their bodies or go around looking like a freak, that’s their choice. I get to make choices, too. I choose not to put too much effort or trust into folks who choose “Look at me!”, over “I’m a trustworthy/honest/hardworker!”. Nature does it, and damned if I don’t do it, too… If you’re gonna dress and act like a freak, why get so offended when people TREAT you like one?? If they didn’t “stereotype”, as well, they wouldn’t be trying so hard to look “different”. Everybody’s trying to make a statement, I make a point to “listen”.
(And it goes for the contractors who throw around the “Christian” deal a little too much, or emblazon their trucks with Bible verses as well…)

Very well spoken.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Totally depends on the business.
