Freedom of Expression?

So I went in for a job interview at a movie theatre today and it was going extremely well.  The manager told me that I was perky and friendly and perfect for the job….but that I had to change the color of my hair (which is a bright red color).  Apparently the theatre promotes an “All-American” look and so the employees must sport only natural hair colors.  Um, doesn’t America have a little something in the constitution called the freedom of expression?  I thought that by my exercising this freedom, I was sporting an “All-American” look.  I get that maybe the corporate officials want to maintain a certain image, but then I looked around the theatre and saw a female employee with BRIGHT bleached blonde hair and about 2 inches of dark brown roots showing.  How natural is that exactly?
