Say it isn’t so.
Are a couple of teenage girls about to be kicked out of school for being “too blond?”
The answer is yes—and the bottle blonds, who are students at the Rednock School in Gloucestershire England, both claim it’s a big mistake, according to parentdish.com.
At issue is the headmaster’s claim that the girls, Reagan Booth, 16, and Aby Western, 15, violated school regulations against “unnatural hair colors.” He says their “lightened locks are against the rules and is demanding that they both go darker or face expulsion.”

“...Rednock School in Gloucestershire England”.
I always wondered how they pronounced redneck.
I get that it's somewhat distracting to see kids with bright pink or green hair. But the distraction is rather limited. And after a day or so the novelty completely wears off and no one cares anymore. It all seems rather harmless.
Just an arbitrary rule for the sake of having rules, I guess.
My first girlfriend was a 6 foot Danish gal and had natural white/blond hair... you couldn't get any more blond...
She was also accused of having a "higher unnatural upper figure"... but they were also "real and spectacular".... Dam I miss her ;>
Definitely almost too blonde.
I feel your pain, dude.
