Liu Pang-chiu, principal of Talun Junior High School in Taoyuan County, says that after his school relaxed its hair code ten years ago, it found it very difficult to control students 'behavior. Unkempt hair quickly led to an undisciplined atmosphere in which teachers were unable to handle their students. The school therefore had to tighten up its rules again.
桃園縣大崙國中校長劉邦秋指出，十年前校內曾經一度開放髮式，但結果是學校很難管理學生的行為，頭髮一亂，風氣、紀律跟著不佳，老師「無法」管學生，因而紛紛又收緊。
