any suggestions for cool places/companies I can work at where I can have piercings &/or different hair colours? (I don't have tattooes)

I would search around stores in a shopping mall. Hot Topic or Pac Sun (if you have those stores in a mall near you). Other fashion stores might also hire somebody with piercings &/or different hair colors. Stores that sell clothes that would fall under the 'skate' 'emo' 'goth' 'punk' (And please excuse me, i HATE to steriotype anyone/anything ..i'm just not sure how to say what clothing type I mean without using those words).
-- I have to say, i'm 19. I live in Connecticut...I used to have BRIGHT BLUE HAIR ...i was hired at a childcare center - it'll be 3 years in July!!
Uhm, some kind of telemarking service.. nobody would ever really see you - you would be speaking over the phone with people. A cousin of mine is heavily into mohawsk and piercings ...anything of the sort, he loves...he works for a telemarketing service. Hes also worked at WalMart ...
Good luck! Its terrible how you have to find somewhere where having piercings and such acceptiable. Just becuase you look different doesnt mean you're not going to do great at the job that your doing. That fact has always bothered me.

If you have a Hot Topics in a local mall that's a good place. HOWEVER if you're looking for a job that is going to pay you and allow you to advance, they don't want to put someone in front of the public that looks like a rainbow tackle box. If you want yourself to be taken seriously in the work place you need to present yourself seriously. I help manage a marketing/publishing company (the largest in my general area) I don't care how qualified someone is, if they came to me looking like a freak show I would choose a person who was less qualified then he/she because you can always train someone to be better, but someone who looks like a circus show is distracting to my clients and my employees. The few working under me are making about 18-20$ an hr. and they all come to work looking like professionals. This is just my theory . . . but if you want a job that is going to pay well, you need to look the part . . otherwise say hello to Burger King.

Well Hot Topic is a really cool store, most workers have a lot of piercings and cool hair colors.

Not to make you sound like a hooker or anything, but with the kind of look you have, People will focus more of their intention on you vs. what the job is for!! Therefore your look allows you to sell yourself without really having to do anything!! So I would strongly recommend Retail Sales ex: Clothing or Shoe Store
