Very little, if any make-up allowed. Ok, you get the point. Sorry for being a little judgemental. Just letting you know what I was taught in school. I know that when we graduate and get out into the real world, we dont all do as we did in school.
same here! that's how we are trained too..and we are not allowed to wear earrings (even just studs for girls and boys of course) and wedding rings--all jewelries not allowed except for a wrist watch engraved with your name! Make up and nail polish are also a no no..as to shoes, they have to be closed of regardless of the area where you were assigned and I kinda adapted that policy until now!
