What is an extreme hairstyle for middle school

Over the summer holidays my 11 year old daughter asked to have her hair cut short on one side and long on the other. If she wears it in a centre parting you can't tell it's been cut at all. It's not dyed and is around a No3 cut. The school has only just seen the cut despite it being the 3rd week of school.
After school the Head rang me and gave me a ten minute lecture on the school dress code, which fair enough says no extreme hair cuts like skinheads or mohicans.
I'm fuming as I view it as self expression and all part of growing up. I thought I would ask you lot to see if I'm totally out of step or is it the school.

I post a picture of the cut later

Grim haircut for an 11 year old. It looks awful. Yabu let her express herself with painting or drawing like other children, not hacking half her hair off like an indecisive raver.
