Distractions to one's self doesn't really make sense to me either. I attended a middle school with a uniform policy and I paid no more, in fact probably less, attention to what I was wearing or what my hair looked like when I started donning a mohawk, and wearing plaid pants, boots, and leather jackets.
I was far more worried about looking presentable when I was forced to than I was about not looking presentable when I was no longer expected to.
