No, they shouldn't be allowed to dictate students' hair styles. I've heard that certain hairstyles are banned because they cause a disruption in the classroom. My response to that is to be a better teacher. Get a better handle on your students. If something as simple as a hairstyle disrupts your classroom, then the problem is you, not the students.
WHo says disruption is only in the classroom? Kids arent in class all the time and they have plenty of time to fight, abuse, taunt, etc each other.
That kind of atmosphere has a negative affect on learning.
