Allow unnatural hair colours at schools

The issue

Students daily get in trouble for their hair colour and appearance at school and we want to make a stand. The colour of our hair does not determine our future, it does not show how intelligent we are and it doesn't affect our ability to learn. We want to make a change, students need freedom of expression, we need to be able to be ourselves and feel safe and comfortable with it in any environment. Whilst we understand that uniforms are equalizers, but we're all different, stop trying to make us cookie cutter copies.Some people don't feel pretty but would with a change of their appearance, hair dye could accomplish that, effectively boosting their self-esteem.
