I Started Wearing “Terrible Wigs” at Work After They Banned My Pink Hair

A 29-year-woman was faced with a dilemma shortly after she took on a job offer. She was told she either had to cover up her pink hair or look for work elsewhere. She accepted the challenge and her amusing way of overcoming the restriction has gone viral.

Emily Benschoter turned to TikTok to share her journey at her new workplace, but with the twist that she can never show her pink hair while she’s on duty. She only found out the fact after she had already been interviewed and offered the position, a front-of-house role in the hospitality industry, because there was no prior contact with her employers in-person or over video chat during the hiring process.

Her manager then suggested she wore a wig and that’s when she decided to pick the funniest ones she could find. Her first TikTok video with the first wig went up on July 19, 2023, and it read: “When you have pink hair, but corporate does not approve, so you wear terrible wigs.”

Since then, people have become invested in her wig choices and her clips have been viewed millions of times. “The worse the wig, the better,” she admitted in an interview. “It is a way to open up the conversation with the customers who think it is insane that I have to cover my pink hair.”

In the same interview, Benschoter also took time to explain why she didn’t just simply dye her hair instead. “Dying my hair for a job I work at for 40 hours per week wasn’t an option,” she revealed. “I am a self-expressive person and I feel very confident with pink hair, so I came up with a solution to keep the job and my hair.”

Despite her having fun with the situation, she doesn’t approve of it. “It’s dehumanizing that I can’t be accepted at face value because my hair is a non-traditional color,” she said. “It’s so superficial that my hair color is an obstacle.”

As we’ve seen, job requirements when it comes to our physical appearance can be an issue for some. For a woman known as the “Dragon Girl,” it’s actually been an impossible task to overcome. Amber Luke chose to get over 600 tattoos to change her appearance, but now people refuse to employ her.

“I can feel my heart breaking.” Reality TV superstar has died in a tragic car accident.

His dejected girlfriend informs him that a drag racer who had appeared on a well-known reality TV program had perished in a horrific vehicle crash.

On Saturday night in southwest Texas, Nathan Schaldach, who plays Cali Nate on the Discovery series Street Outlaws, crashed.

In a tragic Facebook post, his girlfriend Courtney Paulshock confirmed his passing and referred to him as her “soul mate.”

“I’m not whole.” On Sunday, she wrote, “I’m completely shocked.”

“I feel like my heart is breaking.”

According to Paulshock, this occurred while Schaldach was racing at Eagle Pass, which is located roughly two hours west of San Antonio.

Despite assisting him in traveling to the hospital, his friends were powerless to save his life.

Paulshock claimed that she was unwilling to provide any further details regarding the cause of the Schaldach crash or its preceeding events.

His girlfriend commented, “Seeing his mom and sister again made him so happy.”

“Outside, he pursued his passions.”

“To know the kind of love that Nathan gave me and showed me on a daily basis was a true blessing.”

Schaldach appeared in the fourth season of the television program Street Outlaws: Fastest in America, which followed eight drag racing teams as they battled for a $100,000 prize.

His season concluded in May of last year.

The original Street Outlaws, which featured insane street racers risking their lives to participate, served as the inspiration for the current program.

Drag racing involves two cars racing on a short, straight track toward a finish line.

Since street racing is so deadly, most jurisdictions have outlawed it, despite the fact that professional sports are generally safe.

In 2022, while filming Street Outlaws, Ryan Fellows, an actor on the show, lost his life in a car accident. Schaldach passed away after that.

The driver’s car overturned and caught fire in a Las Vegas race. According to a Discovery spokesperson, the loss devastated the network.

The U.S. Sun has contacted Texas police to inquire further about Nate’s collision.

“Never love someone again”
Online, Schaldach’s friends and admirers expressed their sorrow and condolences upon his unexpected passing.

Chris Frank, a friend of Schaldach’s, claimed that after learning the awful news, he barely slept at all.

“Those of you who raced him feared him, and those of you who were friends with him loved him,” Frank was heard saying in a Facebook video.

We all know that any ride could be our last, and every race is dangerous.

“One of the last genuine racers with a genuine love and comprehension for the sport was Nate.”

In one of his saddest farewell emails, Paulshock promised Schaldach that she would love him forever.

“Garth told me to tell you I love you very much just in case tomorrow never comes,” he texted his girlfriend. The driver’s final race ever was this one.

Paulshock added, “Please wake me up from this nightmare,” below a screenshot of the text exchange.

She also shared Lady Gaga’s song “I’ll Never Love Again” from the film A Star Is Born later that same day.
