Long Hair issue
Hey everyone, I have a potential issue with my long hair. I've started a new job that requires me to use a lot of machines that aren't the safest. And my hair has started making me anxious cuz it could be a potential hazard to myself. I don't really want to cut my hair because it's the strongest reminder of my blood and heritage (I live 12 hours away from my tribe so it's difficult to remind myself who I am without the hair sometimes). But Im also not sure if I wanna keep it (most likely an unreasonable anxiety I'm feeling but I really don't wanna lose my fingers) I'm wondering if you all have any tips, advice, or ideas for what I could do? And not the typical "wear it in a ponytail or hat or bun." I'm curious to see if there's potentially a better or more creative option than that.
