Shoulder-length hair on a male public diplomacy officer?

I recently took the FSOT and think I did well, which has me reflecting on steps further down the line. I am a male in my late 20s with neat, shoulder-length blond hair that I wear tied back in a ponytail (or, when it gets a little bit longer than shoulder length, in a bun at the base of my neck).

Would this be a problem for a public diplomacy officer? I've heard of males in the Foreign Service having longer hair but figured public diplomacy officers might be more visible.

The Department has no policy on hair length or hair style.

Maybe I should grow mine out.
