One of our new hires has a shaved head, it's fine, and certainly easier to care for than long locks...

A shaven head, no. Piercings may prejudice some interviewers against you, however. I am not saying it's fair or right, but this is how it is. Can you remove the earrings/jewelry just for the interview at least? Also, remember some policies may prohibit certain piercings in the work place.
