Hair, Make up and Jewellery
Hair
- Hair must be neat, tidy and of a style acceptable to the school, avoiding extremes of personal appearance. This includes hair colouring and haircuts. Hairstyles should not reflect the extremes of youth culture. Hair colourings should be a natural colour only and hair should be cut no shorter than a ‘Number 1’ grade. Closed shaved hair is not acceptable, this includes full or partial saving.
- Hair length should be blended and graduated, with no lines or steps cut in.
- Hair should not be dyed (either permanent or semi-permanent) beyond colours close to natural hair colours (e.g. extreme bleaching and/or red, pink, blue or purple colours). Hair should be only one colour and not a combination of 2 or more complementary or contrasting colours e.g. black hair with blonde streaks would be inappropriate.
- The expectation is that long hair will be tied and secured away from the face, neck and shoulders when learning activities dictate e.g. sport and practical work in a science laboratory.
- Hair clips and hair bands and other hair-retaining devices should be plain black in colour.
- Headscarves should be plain black , and ties must be worn under these at all times.
Make Up and Jewellery
- Ideally no jewellery should be worn.
- A watch is permitted.
- One single plain, flat ring is permitted.
- One single pair of plain ear studs (not hoops/rings/flesh tunnels) can be worn, one in each ear, bottom lobe, not in other areas of the ears.
- No other items must be visible.
- Necklaces and Bracelets in any form are not to be worn. The only exception is the Sikh Kara.
- Tongue piercings, facial jewellery or similar body piercings must never be worn.
- Any new piercings/flesh tunnel procedures that require a ‘healing period’ should only take place during school holidays that are long enough to accommodate this healing process.
- All piercings (other than what is allowed as stated above) must be removed and not simply covered up with plasters during school time.
- No jewellery should be worn during physical education or other practical activities.
- Ideally no make-up; where this is worn, it should be very light and discreet.
- Tattoos (permanent or semi-permanent) should not be visible.
- Coloured nail varnish and false nails are not allowed.
- No false, acrylic, gel or shellac nails.
- No false eyelashes.
