Hey everyone, I have really short hair and I always get a fresh haircut before interviews. However I never put hair gel or anything else into my hair. Could that be considered sloppy and have some people think I don't care much about the interview? Thanks in advance.

Hair gel was the reason I landed my megafund offer.
you're about to have an interview and you are concerned about whether or not to use product in your hair?
Just don't show up in shorts and a t-shirt with a mullet and you should be fine in that area.
I gelled it and got a FT offer. I don't really think this matters, unless the competition is exceptionally fierce and they see gel/non-gel as not going with their corporate culture. Just go in, be confident, know your technicals, and boss it up!
Best of luck!
Thanks guys. I know it's a dumb question, but like I said I was wondering if it would send a bad message. I have not received any offers so far, so you start to wonder about every single tiny thing you could have done wrong.
^ I def feel your pain. I've been dinged for some pretty trivial minutia before I received my FT offer.
