Mmmmmm... Red heads.
But no. You are incorrect.
My hair was bright red for a while in HS. 2 girls thought I should do it and they got the permanent kind and used the whole bottle so my medium short hair was very red. I was told I would have to dye it back by my church's music minister or else not sing in church or go on choir tour. I called their bluff and of course, not to toot my own horn, they had to keep me.
No long hair in School, they had a no long hair policy. But 6 months after school, I let it get longer (in my town, that meant your ears were just barely covered) and I was then threatened to not be allowed in my dad's family photo. I asked him if his new wife's short dike hair would be grown out by then.
I smiled in the photo.
Oh, and I don't recall falling out of a window.
