I also don't deny that it will effect her chances of work.. Perhaps that then needs addressing in employers attitudes than her looks

Employers usually have good reasons for demanding dress codes and appearance ,apart from H&E there is customer perception to their staff ,if someone looks scruffy then usually their work is and will reflect on the company .It's all about discipline aswell ,if someone refuses to remove or cover up rings/tattoos then it is unlikely they will fall in with company policy ,they will always strive to do things their way and not how they are told
