Professional work attire?  email this discussion to a friend?

Ok, I have been licensed in hair for 12 years, and am geeting back into it after raising my family.
Now when I use to do hair, there was kind of a strict dress code, not jeans, tennis shoes, short shorts, short shirts, t-shirts, or anything like that. Basically, "professional" looking attire. Slacks, button up shirts, shirts with no print/writing, shoes, skirts etc..
Well, I have seen now more gals wearing clothing to work in a salon that looks like they should be going to high school! They have short tight tops, tennis shoes, camo pants, concert tees etc... Is that ok? I dress very nice for work, I feel that if I appear to take care of myslef, then people who's hair I will be doing will think I will do a great job becasue of my appearance. I have actually been told though, that I kind of over dress! Is that possible? I mean I'm not weraing evening gowns and heels, but suit jackets and matching slacks with boots.
What do you all think?

I think it depends on the salon. Things have changed alot in the cosmetology world. I went to school to do hair, nails, makeup etc in the '80's. I remember working in a salon, and we had to dress nice. I guess as styles changed, stylist changed. My Brother in Law and my cousin both do hair for celebrities, and usually as long as you a presentable and look together in you style, anything goes!

being attractive is not necessarily being beautiful
when hearing the phrase "attractive", what usually springs in our mind is the beautiful young women...
