My coworkers keep making fun of my new haircut what should I do?

[Anonymous]

Well it's not just my haircut but it's been the most recent thing that they've been teasing/roasting me about. They say it looks like a mop and that I look bald my self esteem is already below sea level so at this point it's just dropping down to hell. Other people have said my haircut looks nice so i feel like it's just pity compliments but I don't know.

Don't worry. I've had some pretty bad work experiences where people were like that and said things that I definitely knew were extremely untrue. Everyone goes through that with at least one work place its totally normal you are not alone. I am sure your haircut does not look bad! Also hair grows back pretty fast if you wash and condition it often. Target also makes this stuff that is supposed to grow your hair fast its called, "Function of Beauty; Lengthen". I have used it before and it works extremely well and fast. Also, if you are unhappy at your job; it's ok to look for a new job! We have all been there. You are not alone :)

Co workers always chirp each other. Its a work thing. Dont take it to heart

[Asker]

I try not to but I can't really help but feel pathetic after they say all that.

[bretonme]

Can i see what your hair looks like? And i bet it looks amazing

[MartianBuddy]

Sorry to hear that, I'm sure it looks fine. 😊 Has this happened in the past? Like a repeating thing? If so you need to speak to someone higher up. It's work, not high school.

[Asker]

Usually it's been friendly banter usually I'm up for a joke or two but my hair is a delicate topic for me. I like my coworkers but I wish they wouldn't treat me like a mascot it does feel like high school all over again...

[MartianBuddy]

I get that, do you think you could take to one of them and maybe let them know how you feel. If one feels like they would be receptive to you. Hang in there champ😊

[Asker]

I will be trying that hopefully one of them will influence the others to stop with the hair jokes thats all I want from them. Thanks for your encouraging words. :)

you don't live your life for them you live for you tell them to fuck off

[Asker]

Unlike them I respect them and wouldn't want to offend them I'm there to work and in order to do that I have to work alongside them. I depend on them so I can't piss them off :(

[driven159]

then you tell them it not appreciated that they make fun of you its unprofessional of them or tell you supervisor

Your coworker is abusive. Tell your manager.

[Asker]

Manager also joins in on the teasing usually not as enthusiastically but they do find it amusing

Find a reason or pick a time to make fun of them.
