Afro hair is the most unique hair textures on Earth lol I can't believe folks expect us to hate the beautiful hair that naturally grows from our heads.
Big thank you to @marieclaire for the Beauty Gives Back Award! 🤍 Were proud to be raising awareness for such a salient issue and hope that the impact of the code will continue to be felt for years to come! ✨#ADOPTTHECODE
Special contributors to our 'Hair Stories' Zine include Charlotte Mensah, author of Good Hair and thrice crowned ‘Afro Hairdresser of the Year’, @alicedearingx, Olympic Swimmer and champion of sports inclusivity, and @TheHaloCode/@thehalocltv 🌟 ORDER: theblackcurriculum.com/zines/p/zine
We are proud to have adopted the @TheHaloCode at Orchard. It's officially in our uniform code. #AdoptTheCode
Thank you for taking the leap and helping end hair discrimination!❤️👏🏽

📣 Real beauty should be welcome in all institutions. We stand against race-based discrimination and we’re proud to see young people standing up to discriminatory dress codes. Let’s continue to #TakeAction through the @TheHaloCode and end #HairDiscrimination 💪

We stand in complete solidarity with the protesting students, and urge schools to sign onto the Halo Code to prevent black students ever feeling like their appearance is a burden in their own school #ADOPTTHECODE #THEHALOCODE
Can’t even begin to explain how painful and harmful this is to read. Institutional, ideological, interpersonal and most of all internalised racism (clearly) is alive and well. google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theg…
School student heroes at Pimlico Academy walk out after their headteacher bans afros and colourful hijabs. They call it racism. Ten minutes down the road on the very same day, Etonians in parliament announce there is no institutional racism in Britain. Whose side are you on?
Where is the accountability? Schools can impose any hair rules on pupils, even racist ones! @educationgovuk ... make 'appearance' policies statutory so you can protect pupils. Schools... look at @TheHaloCode and sign up. Schools... celebrate #BigHairAssembly with @worldafroday

We are excited @Alleyns_School to have signed up to @TheHaloCode, the UK's first Black hair code, and to champion the right of our staff and pupils to embrace all Afro hairstyles. More: ow.ly/yVbD50E1a5M. @thehalocltv
@MissNGrace This is absolutely unacceptable, and I hope your sister isn’t feeling too upset😔 Black children across the UK are still being punished for their natural hair. We should encourage every school to accept @TheHaloCode and work towards de-stigmatisation of black hairstyles!!
POLLUTION ZONE Did you know the air in #Catford is dangerously polluted? @ChokedUp_UK put up signs to make sure that passers by think twice about the air they’re breathing. We’re making the invisible visible.
We are pleased to announce that we have adopted @TheHaloCode, the UK’s first Black hair code, championing and protecting the rights of individuals to embrace all Afro-hairstyles in the workplace. Find out more below.
Here's the second half of my piece on #afro hair discrimination. Corporations like @ProcterGamble have adopted @TheHaloCode to help fight the issue, but for many there is still a way to go until progress is felt. Watch here 👇
Around 3hrs and 20mins in you can hear me and a wonderful Y9 student from @BristolBrunel talking about adopting @TheHaloCode at our school 👸🏽👸🏽 My heart burst at the point she said the school is a safe space for young people in our community 🥰 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0…
This is fantastic news @Cabotfederation's @BristolBrunel first school in the city to adopt the @TheHaloCode No Black staff or students should have to change their natural or protective hairstyle in order to thrive at school clf.uk/bristol-brunel…
