Good cause backfires....

They got rashes after being made to wear one and have since been exempted. -- ST PHOTO: ASHLEIGH SIM

When 15-year-old Leia Lai and two of her classmates went back to school on Monday, they sported a new look - bald.

The three St Margaret's Secondary School students had cut their hair to raise funds for a cancer charity.

But this drew the ire of their principal, as they had not donned wigs, as they had promised earlier.

The school's rules do not allow "punk, unfeminine or sloppy hairstyles". Said principal Marion Tan: "It's very clear in our mission: it's about their turnout as a young lady."

they shd know that wigs made from pubic hair stringed together is not too kind on the scalp, good intentions notwithstanding. Anyway, at 15 years they must know as they wud have got some fungus growing down there.
But seriously, both of them brought wigs that made both their scalps itch? ...or is it more a convenient way out and a win-win situation for both the principal and the gals

Can I also start a campign for good cause? Keep a African hairstyle to remind us of hunger in Africa? Good cause? So now, the students can also use the reason to keep such hairstyle?

The students just wanted to stir shit and get fame for doing so lah. Everyone wants a piece of fame.

They shaved bald - its their own hair, their own business. Why does the school object and find fault. Must everyone conform?

Cheers!
