I have interviews for some show rooms in the NYC's garment district. I'm also being considered for Production Assistant gigs for fashion manufacturer's (my field). However, I'm not sure what to wear to the interview and I'm sure this has been covered, but I'm wondering if I should be cautious/safe and go with biz casual or be daring and go with my personal style.

Second concern: I recently completed research for industrial psych on discrimination based on "natural" hair styles. Let's just say that it occurs, a lot. Especially against Black women. I happen to rock natural braids and am afraid that they could deter my chances at a job/internship. What do you think? Would changing my hair be compromising my personal preferences too much?

TIA!
