That's the list of unacceptable hairstyles. Though WTF is up with that might as well make all the girls have long hair.

look at the top of the screenshot, it says Fig1 Unacceptable Hairstyles,

so no the But Mullet, Rat-Tail, Emo, and rooster tail is not ok either

Still for a public preschool??? it seems rather strict...

The younger kids look good in long hair.

I can't make the link work so I don't really know what the story line is. All I get is a blank page, I'll try back later in case it's just exceeded bandwidth.

I'm in Fort Worth and I haven't seen the story so it can't be making too many waves.

If only the incident referred to a "Kid gets suspended by long hair "............

ahhh i was like wtf? lol but makes sense now, i was listening instead of read, but why is a regular buzzcut unacceptable?

I believe they call that look the "fauxhawk". Also, I'm not racist, so please for the love of GOD don't take this the wrong way, but a large contingent of the unacceptable hair styles seem to be perpetuated by the Latino community.... at least a lot of the Mexican dudes around here seem to rock em.

Why can't you have zig-zags shaved in your hair?

Gang affiliation. Big in the urban community according to stuffed shirts. I failed this one for the original problem, my hair is nearly shoulder length. I sometimes shave random E36 M3 into my beard too to mess with the people at work.

It's Texas. They are bizarre in Texas about things like that.

You should have been in Burkburnett back in the 1990's when they allowed a school dance!

My youngest son is president of a mid sized security company- ~40 employees. He also has shoulder length hair and a beard long enough that he occaisionally braids it. Unusual for a corporate environment. He also goes to a Foo Fighters concert at least once a month. He looks a bit strange, but he is very good at what he does.

My kids looks better with a high and tight than with long hair.

They is awesome physical specimens though ;)

From Trevor Brown

I wasn't allowed to have long hair in school, not until college. They'd probably have cut my hair if I showed up like that. And that fact doesn't bother me a bit.

Punks.

its hair...zomg get over it!

I can haz a kwazy morality debatez over something that doesnt even matter lolzers yo

I found that shaving my head bald with a razor garnered me more strange looks than the following:

Shoulder length hair
Huge mohawk
Dyed hilarious unnatural black
PINK "fauxhawk"
Mullet
Dyed red and spikey

Thats what he gets for being a god D$% dirty HIPPY. If you give an inch on this next thing you know he will be smoking the grass. Long hair: the gateway haircut.

quote from paternal unit in said case:

"i don't know why i should have to hold my son down against his will and cut his hair."

because he's berkeleying FOUR YEARS OLD, YOU ASSHOLE! he doesn't have a will to be held against. you put him in a situation with rules, so man up and follow the rules. way to teach your kid that rules don't apply to him. maybe he can push a broom right next to you, you POS loser-berkeley. ejaculation is a weak prerequisite for fatherhood. then again, dad's got neck tats and face piercings.

(oh boy, i can't wait to hear from teh defenders of neck tats and face piercings)

What? They make idiots easier to spot. I also look for people wearing their ball cap sideways flat visored with the tag still on it.

That's because those haircuts aren't noticed or just ignored by most people, but a shaved head says skinhead to some people. (not all, just some)

I love you so much right now.

yeah, good point. I suppose I need to clarify...

Shiny happy people dont need to worry so much about things like long hair and such. If youre good people, youre good people.

Now, if you voluntarily send your kid to insert any institution here and the rules state insert any body modifier here is/is not acceptable, and your kid decides he/she/it () doesnt like it, TOUGH E36M3! My folks didnt hesitate to "remind" me when I wasnt following marching orders, and I soon realized that I didnt really have a say in the matter. It wasnt until I was into High School that I got a say in a lot of the rules.

Heh. I remember in school my grandma was highly religious, and when my hair got a bit long she had to preach about how I had to cut my hair because I looked like a girl. So I turned and pointed to the portrait of Jesus hanging in her living room and said, "you worship a girl then."

Last she ever brought it up.
