eew gross..


Ok. Here's the deal. My school is having a prom on the 28th of june so I would be so happy if anyone coudl give me an indication on what dates the induction week will be on?. I really hope it will not coincide with my prom, but if It does I will just have to miss it.


p.s. I'm dying my hair purple for the Hp Book release party!! ( going as tonks ). V.excited but I will definitely get it removed by september, if the colour looks a bit strange will I get in trouble?

This is probably just a really silly question. I bet I'll be dying it alot the couple of days before I go to CH since I'll be trying to get it back to it's normal colour. It doesnt really matter if you can't answer.

Back to Gemmy's question.......

What is the school ruling on natural coloured hair ?

I only ask, because the Human Rights Act could be evoked !

Yes Amy but what would have happened if you had gone purple with green streaks?
In my day (here comes another Oldie!) our hair had to be cut to clear the collar (so lots of 'pudding basin' hairstyles, perpetuated by the 'hairdressers' who attended the School to cut our hair....). If it did not clear the collar, it had to be tied back in a ponytail, bunches, or plaits. So there were some very tiny bunches, and some very long plaits!
I don't remember anyone in my time actually colouring their hair. But colouring and perming kits were becoming readily available in Woolworths. What do others remember?!
(And how does that relate to Gemma now......?!)
