What do you do for a job/internship interview if you have visible tattoos, piercings or funky-colored hair? Are employers generally turned off by this appearance, or is having a creative edge sometimes an advantage? What do you do in this case? |

Based on your question you must realize:
What kind of job is it?
Will it involve communicating with a lot of people? Will you need to sell yourself for a sale of a product? Will you be willing to change you attire to get the job?
The open job market has a tendency of labeling you as first impressions are seen by the interviewer. Unless you are looking for a job in the Tattoo business or the body piercing business. You will need to be very presentable to get in the door and get a good interview with the possibilities of being hired. And, not be a turn off to the interviewer. Remember, if you are being interviewed is because the Company liked your credentials/resume now they want to meet you a see what you look like and how presentable you are.
Good Luck
