Let's say you're the hiring manager for a non-customer-facing technical position, and your workplace is somewhat laid back, but not quite foosball tables in the bathrooms laid back. Further, let's say you interview someone for a position and they basically knock your socks off on the phone, but when they come in for an in-person interview, despite knocking even more socks, they turn out to have BRIGHT ORANGE HAIR.

I know what I'm going to do, but I'm curious what other people think I should do.

My initial thought is that if they're too squeamish to handle the hair, then they might not be a place that you'd be totally happy at.

There's a difference between daily work and an interview. For one thing, once you've had the job a bit you've established yourself, your skills and your rep.
