Hairstyles are usually meant to keep hair in a properly groomed condition. However, there are a few individuals who like to wear trendy hairstyles. These people will go to salons, color their hair in the most contrasting colors, and use hair shears to trim their hair and do many such experiments with their hair.
The end result for such experiments is not important for these people but if they are students in their primary schools, then it will attract the wrath of their teachers.
There have been too many incidents in primary schools recently, regarding hairstyles. Every other day, we read stories about students being tortured by their teachers for their hair. I agree that schools should impose a strict discipline for the appearance of its students but what is the point to torture students for an unusual hairstyle. I wonder how hairstyle affects your education!
Taylor Pugh is a pre-kindergartner and likes his floppy hair which is long on the front and sides, covering his earlobes and shirt collar. However, he was handed a school suspension as his long locks violate the dress code of his school situated in Texas. His parents are battling school over their son’s suspension.
There are many students like Taylor Pugh who have been punished by their schools for wearing long hair or sporting trendy hairstyles like a Mohawk. Many people have religious beliefs associated with hair and would never compromise to part their company, but the school authorities forget to respect it.
Teachers are supposed to impart good values to students but are becoming so violent that they are setting up a bad example and creating a fear amongst the young ones. Recently, a teacher imposed a barbaric punishment on Lamya Cammon. Lamya is a first grader and she was shamed by her teacher as she cut a chunk of hair with hair shears and threw it away. All this happened right in front of her classmates and one can imagine the amount of embarrassment the kid had to go through.
Such violent actions from teachers are challenging the safety of children in schools. After all, schools are meant to provide education and not to single out students with different hairstyles and hand them punishments. I don’t think it is right to hold a child down and force him to do something, when it’s not hurting him or affecting his education.
