Background
Schools should not limit their students expression of themselves. To say it is distracting is both unfair and incorrect. It will not impact their learning and helps them discover their identity. Almost all students would much rather be able to express themselves through physical appearance, and limiting that leads students to be monotonous and not unique, forcing them to live without expressing who they truly are.
