Hello All,

I wasn't sure where to post this question and I hope this is an ok place. I should be coming to Taiwan in a few weeks and I'm nervous about my hair. I dye it red usually and wasn't sure if this is very uncommon or not. I imagine that taiwanese dye their hair but I don't want to look like a totol weirdo or risk getting a job because of my hair, I can always go back to blonde I guess. What does everyone think? Does it matter at all?

Thank you for your input!

If you're nervous about it. Dye it bac,k to its normal colour and then see what all the other teachers look like. If it's a natural red, it might be ok, if it's a shocking fire engine one, you might want to consider goign back to blond

Assuming you are not of Asian decent, defiantly return to your natural color... at least until you talk with foreigners in your area. A friend and I were in Taiwan and ended up with all colors of hair...they just do not have experience with Caucasian hair.
