Should I cut my hair for a recruiting event?

I'm sikh and I basically have my hair and facial hair like this

From the research I've done here only very conservative hair cuts, and no facial hair is acceptable in the banking world.

Will it hurt me to look like a very tidy version of the above, or should I cut it all off.

Note: I plan to cut it all of if I happen to have an interview, and if I get a position.
