Who gives a frick about how long someone’s hair is? I went to a private Christian school and the only hair rule we had was that it had to be out of your eyes. Tied or otherwise. The rule didn’t distinguish between boys and girls.

Don’t let facts stop a guy who’s probably a millennial but doesn’t realize he is one to try and shite on millennials.

It isn't stupid. They want guys to be well groomed. We had this same rule in Catholic school.
You have to be trolling. You can’t possibly say with a straight face that just because a guy has long hair that he isn’t well groomed.

So, no rules at all, right?

Makes sense. Jesus had long hair in most of his pictures.

Appearance rules in public schools should be very basic and only there to eliminate really dramatic cases. You're dealing with people of multiple races, socioeconomic backgrounds, etc.
I said the other day. I go into schools for my job, and the highest performing schools I visit out around the country have 0 dress code. It just isn't an issue. Let the kids be themselves and focus on what they're actually there for.

You can have long hair as a guy and still be well groomed.

Graduate cum laude and go on to get a Master's, like I did?
And it's Megadeth, you fricking heeb.

The kid looks gay. But as someone who’s rocked long hair, good for him.

Not exactly what I’d call a melting pot of diversity out here in Livingston Parish. But don’t let that get in the way of your HOTTAKE on dress codes and hygeine requirements, which have been in place both in this school and it’s system for well over a decade.

Arbitrary hair length rules always pissed me off. I was one of the top students at my Catholic high school, and the only time in my life I was ever threatened with a detention was when my hair got too long. I mean, it was a Catholic school - Jesus had long hair. Granted, he was a fictional character - but he was a white guy with long hair.

The fair I can understand. Why keep that mustache though?
Posted on 5/4/18 at 7:10 am to LouisianaLady
I'm not making any connection at all between dress codes and good grades. You think it could be something else?

Except for the fact fictional Jesus wasn’t white. He is middle eastern

I definitely agree that the length of one's hair is arbitrary, but…
You have to set rules by what the area agrees with the most. If the city has more conservative viewpoints, that should be reflected in the school as well.
Long hair length is just the beginning of the very tight reins needed to keep dress code in check. Next is colored hair, or mohawks . The list is endless in ways that they can break the dress code. So as to not distract kids from their studies it is important.

I love it.
In the real world he could choose to work someplace that allows his hair.
