Massive Haircut Problem

Hello,

I'm a male M&A intern at a BB, and I'm grappling with a significant haircut challenge. To provide some context, my hair is semi-curly, making it tricky to style in a way that's neither fully curly nor entirely straight. This has resulted in a less-than-ideal hairstyle that doesn't convey the seriousness expected in Investment Banking, aligning with my associates, VPs, and MDs, and lacking the desired professional sigma.

Could you share any haircut recommendations tailored for semi-curly hair in an Investment Banking setting?

Thanks!

That's the worst option, my head is tremendous (how would I land a job at BB?)

Not even mentioning my forehead of the size of an airport...
