I was reading THIS and it made me wonder how strict your schools are/were. Did you/do you have strict rules on uniform? What about things like hair length, style and colour? Are/were you allowed to wear jewellery?

ok, so hes being a bit of a pansy about his hair. "i feel really bad for weeks after having it cut"
BUT STILL
how stupid. i love lads having long hair. Jonny has longish hair, it used to be longer, but hes seeing how long it is before he gets told to put it in a ponytail in chemistry lol

if girls are allowed, boys should be allowed

ok if theyre making girls have really short hair too, even though thats also stupid, but, ugh. i hate stuff like this


my schools okish, we're not allowed nail varnish tho, which annoys me, its not a health hazard, so whats the problem?
yeah some girls will have like, chipped bright blue sparkly varnish making them look scraggy, but to be honest, its more their scraggy scraggyness that makes them look scraggy.

Stop posting links to 'THIS' haha, I've opened about 10 new tabs to look at them all, post them on the threads haha.

Anyway our school uniform wasn't that bad, we had a uniform of:
- School polo shirt (red or blue) and sweatshirt jumper (optional, blue) both with school logo on
- Black trousers (didn't have to be actual trousers, I used to wear like half denim/half trouser kinda things, that aren't trousers but aren't jeans, they didn't let people wear jeans
- Black shoes/boots, anything that looked smartish really
- Boys couldn't wear shorts but girls could wear skirts, odd no?

They didn't like much hairwise, anything unusually coloured (blue, green, pink etc) they objected to, don't think they were that bothered with length
The only earrings they said you could wear were really small ones or stude, none fo them hoop earrings or dangling ones and made you take them off.

my uniform, back in te day, was also polo-shirt, sweatshirt, black or grey trousers and black shoes.

i've never been a make-up girl but some girls used to wear loooooads and i dont think it was ever an issue. i did used to wear nail varnish though which was ok.

earings were only allowed if they were sleepers or studs and no other facial piercings were allowed.

Haha, half the guys at my old school had hair that length.

Our uniform was fairly common for the comprehnsive pretening to be more type school.
-Black trousers/skirts
-White shirts
-Maroon Blazers
-Maroon Ties
-Black shoes

There weren't regulations on length of hair, but funny coloured hair wasn't really acceptable.
Boys i don't think were allowed earrings, but many people did.
Same with facial piercings,
I think girls were meant to have one piercing per ear too, and studs, but again, no one cared.
The biggest thing was making sure you had your shirt tucked in, haha.

the only thing that really got enforced at my school was trainers, everything else was kinda ignored to an extent.

What the hell, sounds more like a prison than school.
