Re: dreads in the workplace
As long as they're kept clean, tidy and odour free, I'd just go for it. I never asked either of my employers before I did mine and neither bothered. Although there's not really an appearance policy in social care and my other boss just doesn't care.

Like others have advised though, I'd check your contract and workplace appearance policy.

Re: dreads in the workplace
Stop kidding yourself, you work in an office. Dreads don't belong there.

Quit the job and get a dog on a bit of string instead.

Re: dreads in the workplace
Even if your contract says nothing explicitly about hair, check there isn't a catch-all clause about "bringing the company into disrepute" or similar.

Re: dreads in the workplace
As much as I love my dreads, seriously don't get them. Biggest pain in the arse ever.

High-Five!
