The title might sounds weird for some of you, but this is happening very often in my school in [tag]Malaysia[/tag]. According to the book of school rule provided by the Ministry of [tag]Education[/tag](Malaysia), there is no such action can be taken on students.
If the student’s hair is too long or broke the rule, teachers can only warn them, or order them to do some work, for example, to clean the school or something similar. From last two years, I always see my school’s [tag]teachers[/tag] looking for [tag]student[/tag]s who violent the so called hair rule and cut their hair.
Of course, they are not professional, but a dumb ass who blindly cut your hair. The result? It will look much more uglier, and make the student looks like an idiot. Is this what the teachers want? Is this any better than a hair that is slightly longer than allowed? Furthermore, those teacher’s hair are long too. I’m sure teachers should be more discipline than students, am I right?
I once got caught for having my [tag]hair[/tag] over my shirt’s collar, which is breaking the rule. The teacher who caught me wanted to cut my hair, and just before he cut, I asked him if his hair is any shorter than mine. I also asked him if only student need to be discipline, and teachers doesn’t need to. Guess what? He charged me for insulting him.
One word I would describe him. Stupid. He didn’t answer the questions, but just avoid it and as if I’m the one who is wrong all the time. If it is stated in the book of rule that teachers can cut student’s hair, I’d not complain any. But this is not true, they just act the way they want, without bothering student’s feeling. What if I [tag]cut[/tag] their hair?
Do you think a student will study in a better environment with the idiotic hair or with a slightly long hair? Sometimes, I really wonder if they can improve any. They always wanted us to follow the rules strictly, while they are not at all. I hope the Ministry of Education in Malaysia can take this seriously. To me, this kind of teachers are big bully. They can do anything on you, and they’re always right. We can do nothing, but just accept those craps they did to us. :shuteye_ee:

Well I reckon it isn’t just something that is localised to your school given in my day when I used to study in high school they cut students hair too based on length and ‘weirdness’. Length is fairly understandable given an oft-forgotten and probably deprecated idea of spreading head lice in unkempt and usually, long hair. More often that not though, it might be the idea that students who do not keep their hair short (and thus arguably clean), are just doing it to break the rule, be different and be rabble-rousers. In a sense, what they want to do by cutting people’s hair should be about uniformity and cutting out the expression of individualism.
You can read it that way. Of course, we could just take the easy roads and say rules suck and teachers are dicks. Cutting of a students hair really shouldn’t be about making the student look idiotic, but making him/her look idiotic is certainly going to be a catalyst to them getting a proper short haircut.
As for your teachers with long hair. Yeah, thats blatant unprofessionalism. It’s being hypocritical to espouse the virtues of short hair and proper order, rules and non-individualism and yet come out with decidedly long hairstyles which screams for all intents and purposes, a cry to show he’s different.
I really wouldn’t have to say much with regards to you asking him those questions though. I’d say he was right to dob you in for those questions, although probably for the wrong reasons.

Today at school my boyfriend Trey Romero and another good 20 boys got pulled out for theier hair. They were then piled into the office and thier hair was cut. The person who cut thier hair however has never been to beauty school and did crappy jobs on thier hair. I dont think hair being a few inches longer than your eyebrows is much of a distraction.Do you? A distraction that really bothers me is this bogus hair rule for guys,aswell as thier new hidious hair cuts. Some how none of the kids at school are distracted by little things such as my pink hair in teh beginging of the year or the guys long hair with is actually not that long. As a matter of fact …no one is distracted accept for the principal(yes,thats right,not even most teachers care about it) . You see ,my theory is that long hair or manic colored hair dosent take away from the learning experiance. Neither does seeing some ramdom ass kid wearing a skull. Skulls have also been baned in school. For you see skulls mean death. I asked around and everyone said that when i wear skulls no one really thinks of me as a real big threat. They just think of me as they usually do. Long hair ,Manic colors,skulls,and other bogus rules like these dont distract students and most of the time teachers either. I think these rules should be uplifted(if they are even rules) because of the stupidity behind them.
