WIY: I know of several people (I’ve asked around) who would be reprimanded immediately for appearing unkempt. But yes, that “several” would have been nearly everyone 50 years ago. Maybe in another 5-10 years there will be no Heter to shave for work during Sefirah. Then again, maybe workplaces will become much more strict and professional in the future. Each case needs to be judged. But most office jobs at serious firms or corporations will still “strongly recommend” you to be clean-shaven.
