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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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
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, I learned that my hair color is classified as "Buttered Toast". FML
Today, in an effort to save money, I dyed my hair at home. I used the wrong shade, or brand, or maybe I shouldn’t have bought a cheap one, but now I look like a mutant traffic cone. My boss asked if I was “expressing myself” or “just having a midlife crisis.” I can’t afford to fix it, so I’m stuck like this for weeks. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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.

Why are you going to that school?

I don't live in America, so I can't say that I am an expert on your laws, but that does fall under the category of (believe it or not) racial discrimination and I'm pretty sure thats illegal!

Probably discrimination in general, not racial... unless hairs have feelings.

My aunts school is like that. If it evokes emotions of violence it's banned, red equals blood and death and destruction and satanism. Stupid ******* bullshit from stupid ******* idiots who think they know what's best for everyone.

No one should be forced to dye their hair or change their body for school. Take it to court OP that's illegal. Don't die your hair, there's nothing they can do To you. Seriously. DON'T do it.

Let your hair be natural and if they suspend you, sue them.

Dafuq? What colors are considered "unnatural colors"? That's BS. Sounds, like another lawsuit.

I'd say purple, blue, green or pink. But I'm guessing OPs hair is either white blonde, red, orange or black.

Don't dye it, especially if you're a ginger! Red hair is so gorgeous and worth being rebellious for. **** their rules and if they say something, proceed with some sort of legal action that will shut them up.

Hey, you should take this to the media :) They'll love how you are being discriminated against, and you might me able to overturn the stupid rule in the process. Good luck :)
