Where could I work in Toronto, Ontario that would allow me to have facial piercings?
-
I am in my final year of high school and I need to get a job to help support myself. I have 10 facial piercings, most of which I can hide but there are a few I can't, and I need a place to work that will hire me and allow me to have a certain number of facial piercings. All places that I have found that allow facial piercings require previous work experience which I do not have although I do have volunteer experience. Does anyone know of a place that would consider hiring me in Toronto, Ontario with my appearance and lack of experience?

Answer:
Toronto has tons of piercing/tattoo shops. I would try those because they'd rather hire people with tattoos/piercings than people who don't have either. Apply to be an administrative assistant or something.

Might try some headshops(smoke shops) or possibly consider removing some piercings. Its tough to get a job even without your piercings, everyone requires experience these days. They would rather not have to train someone. I don't know if they have these shops in Canada but something similar to Spencers gifts or Hot Topic(goth or similar stores?) might work also.

I know you don't want to hear this, but in the professional world, you need to look your best. Facial piercings not only make you look bad, but reflect on the company as well. Office jobs don't even let you wear jeans to work, let alone metal on your face. That being said, it really depends on what field you want to go into. I've seen some pretty grubby people working behind counters in supermarkets/convience stores, etc. You could get some kind of mall job (Hot Topic actually prefers you to look scary), or work as a cleaner. Your best bet is a minimum wage job until you get enough experience to move up. Hope all goes well for you. xo
