Is Dyed hair unprofessional to have to an Interview?

[Malcolm 1]

Hi there! 

I've got my Green Card interview in a couple of weeks time and my wife recently dyed her hair, and she brought up the fact afterward if the Immigration Officer might think that it would be unprofessional to have. I was thinking about it and I think its just got on my nerves however we do look young and I do not want to give off the stereotype of being unprepared or seeming naive. 

Cheers

Your interview has nothing to do with your wife's hair color

your relationship and living conditions and marriage do

you,  yourself ,  could walk in with multi colored hair 

your fingerprints need to match 

 

not the hair

don't overthink the process just get the necessary documents together

'Unprofessional'?  Why would one need to look professional outside of the context of a job interview?

I have blue hair. Haven't had an interview yet but my hair is blue in the pictures I sent in. I hope it's ok! It shouldn't matter but we never know...

My hair is a different color in every picture, identification, etc... - LOL - I would not worry about it.

My ex-husband came in on a K1 and was perfectly AWFUL during our AOS interview in 2011, completely condescending and rude. Frankly I am surprised now he was approved with his attitude (thanks Obama! ). His hair was his natural blond and honestly I think the officer interviewing us would have preferred him to have purple hair and be pleasant. 

 

Be yourself, be real, tell the truth, and relax as much as you can. You got this!

My wife and I both look young (and are fairly young) and were in a similar predicament as you and your spouse.

 

I had a similar conundrum where I wanted to wear one of my suits, although in all of the years I've done business, something I learnt a while back is that it's better to dress appropriately rather than compensate by over-dressing for a situation.

 

I know the expectation is for you to go in and look professional, although business casual will suffice. Your hair colour shouldn't factor into the decision and is not a valid reason for USCIS to harp on you.
