I need style ideas

Hi! I`ve been reading up on hair styles because I`m bored any some suggestions I`ve run across for looking professional:

*Part your hair on the side, since center-parted hair is more adolescent-looking (I break this rule all the time, but hey that`s what the hair gurus say.)

*Keep your hair around shoulder length. They say if you go for a cut above-the-ears you`ll look signficantly more mature, but I wouldn`t chop your hair off just for a professional image.

Something I do while on the job that looks GREAT (so my coworkers tell me.) I part my hair on the side and gather it back in a sleek ponytail. Then I twist the ponytail into a bun, secure it with pins and wrap a faux hair wrap around the bun once. I got this Scunci thing at Target...it`s a full-looking slightly spikey, slightly curly $2.99 fake hair piece that goes around the bun once. I got it in brown and was lucky enough to have it match my hair. The effect is an instant dressy updo: it looks just like I went to get my hair done because it completely hides the bun. I get way more compliments on that style than when I take the time to wear it down and straight! They still sell them at Target in the hair accessories section. I hope this helps! Good luck at your interview! :-)

Have you considered some kind of updo? I think a simple twist looks very professional. Not too severe and it won`t make you look like a librarian. :)
