Today, yet again, I had to dye my hair brown in advance of the new school year, because my school doesn't allow "unapproved" colors, even if they're natural. FML

Today, I bleached my hair for the new school year. Instead of blonde, it came out orange, making my hair look like a bloated pumpkin. FML

Today, I walked into school confident about the new hair color I'd had done over the weekend. My drama teacher apparently dyed her hair the same color; everyone noticed and thought I'd copied her. FML

Today, I decided I wanted to dye my hair a medium brown. Little did I know, some jerk switched the hair dye boxes. My hair is now bright orange. FML

Today, I let my daughter dye her hair pink. I got an email from her school stating that the hair color violated the school dress code as it's “distracting,” and she will not be allowed to attend classes until she changes it. We do school over Zoom. Not sure how her hair distracts on a screen. FML

Today, I tried to dye my hair blonde. Turns out, green hair doesn't suit me. FML

Today, I colored my hair. It was supposed to turn out blonde, but it became more a mix of red and brown and blonde patches. When I tried coloring everything back, a green tint was added. My hair is at the moment red, brown, blonde and green. FML

Today, as always, my mother hates my life choices. Particularly my hair for some reason. As she's always whinging about it being dyed blonde, I dyed it back to my natural colour again to appease her, and stop the constant bullying. She hates it. FML

Everything's gone green

Today, it's been a month since the hair dye that was supposed to be temporary is still making my hair tropically green, now with some added roots making it look even worse. FML

Today, after wasting $60 and 3 hours of my time getting my hair dyed to get rid of the ugly orange tint it had from the last time I got my hair dyed, it turned out to be the exact same color I started with. I go on vacation in 6 days and hate my hair. I'm not looking forward to taking pictures, that’s for sure. FML

What color is your hair naturally? ._.

They can't make you dye your hair... That doesn't make sense or seem right at all. You go to a religious school or something? Which still doesn't make sense considering that's the color God gave you. FYL.

If your hair is natural, they have no legal right to tell you to die your hair, private school or not. Story seems fake, sorry.

Are they even allowed to do that?

Yup. If they think it isn't "natural" they can....my school is the same way. We can't color our hair colors that don't look natural, no facial piercings, and we can't wear anything with stripes. Just solid color polos. Yet we can have tatoos -__- at my old school, girls had to wear skirts. We couldn't wear jeans or shorts or capris. If we did we got sent home

Wait. No stripes? What exactly is so bad about wearing stripes?

OP! Tell us your natural hair color! Whitish-blondish? I'm wondering.

That is absolutely horrible and honestly, a bit racist. SUE.

Discriminatory, yes. Racist, no. Are they even able to sue without getting kicked out of the courthouse and being made a laughingstock? No.

Sparks808 is right they can't force you to dye your hair. You could take this to court. They can't make you dye your hair because they don't like your natural color
