This is so stupid! The girl looked adorable! Meanies made her cry! Father should have dyed her hair black, lol!

British media outlets have been going gaga over the story of a little girl with a Lady Gaga-esque hairstyle. The reason? The 4-year-old reportedly was reduced to tears when her school refused to allow her to wear her hair in a bow for a school photo.

To clarify: Little Marcella Marino could have worn her hair in a ribbon, (so long as said ribbon was a dark color such as black, maroon or navy blue). She just couldn’t wear her actual hair in a bow shape, as pictured here, because of the Christian school’s ban on hair braids.

Marcella Marino, 4, was not allowed to wear her hair in a bow shape at Ramsgate Holy Trinity Primary School in Kent, England. School officials said the hairstyle violated dress code standards.

Marino’s father, hairdresser Marcello Marino of Kent, England, told reporters that it upset him to see his daughter so upset.

“Marcella asked me if I could do her hair like a princess for the school photo and I came up with a simple but elegant style, using her hair to make a bow,” he said in quotes published in the Daily Mail and Sun newspapers. “I thought it looked wonderful and Marcella loved it, but when she went for the school photo on Monday, [May 21], she was told she wasn’t allowed to wear her hair in that style because of the dress code.

“It isn’t a hair braid, it is quite simply a knot in the shape of a bow, and I should know because I’m a hairdresser. I really cannot see a problem with it and all the other parents said she looked fantastic.”

It's not like she wore a meat suit or a ton of makeup like they do in those horrid beauty contests for little girls to look slutty!

The, "rule", was, "no braids", It's a knot. So, every child should look alike like the, "Children of the Corn".

Much more important to enforce than bullying or putting air conditioning in the school rooms! Idiots!

i agree. however, it is quite friggin stupid. it's just a hairstyle

[banana dick]

pathetic organization of fools that dare call themselves a "school". it take a truly evil person to make a little girl cry and be ok with it.

furthermore it's not a braid it's a fucking bow. this "christian" school is just mad because it's a hairstyle inspired by lady gaga and she's pro-gay! no disputing this.
