El Salvador Imposes Strict New School Dress and Haircut Rules
Military-appointed education leadership bans mohawks and 'Edgar cuts'
El Salvador's education system has introduced strict new grooming rules under the leadership of a military captain, prohibiting students from wearing mohawks or so-called 'Edgar cuts.' The directive, framed as a move to instill discipline in public schools, mandates clean and proper haircuts for all students.
Critics argue the regulations are overly restrictive and reflect the government’s increasingly authoritarian approach to social order.
