HpS -  AGTSP   pamho.   Hmmm.   I don't know the exact details.  Sometimes it is nice not to be liked by certain people.   Thieves don't like police.   Vibhisana said that living in Lanka as a devotee of Visnu was like living as a tongue surrounded by sharp teeth!!!  Have to move quickly.

Each situacion is diferent.

For Bhak.  Vedan.  Institute, Science Preacher, Prabhupada said that they could grow hair and wear suit and tie, but they had to use Tilak.

Ask other local devotees who have situation like you!
