I've never worn makeup as a daily ritual and I haven't shaved my legs more than half a dozen times in over a decade.
But this definitely impacts my career. Nearly every female partner wears heavy makeup, business-professional jewelry, and is clearly very familiar with hairspray. This is not coincidence. I was told at one point delicately by two partners that for women, unfortunately, appearance matters.
