Gentlemen:
Someone asked at the last meeting whether or not plain plastic hair beads are legal. I answered at the time, probably not, but that I would check with the NFHS Rules Editor, Ellliot Hopkings. Here is his ruling:
Ken,
The folks that I have spoken with have determined that it is a safety
issue (beads snapping off, swinging around the eye area) and have ruled
the beads as an adornment hence jewelry and Rule 1-4-10 covers the
prohibiting of jewelry. I hope this helps. Keep well.
