I had a similar situation last year for a Girls' C-Squad game, only it was metal bobbie pins & butterfly clips in the hair. She went through warmups and nothing was said. It wasn't till she came to the table to sub-in, that I noticed it, buzzed the floor officials about it & they gave the coach a warning about not following uniform rules/regulations.
How I understand the rules/regulations, only prewrap, scrunchies, headbands, or hairbands are to be used for hair control. (nothing metal in the hair).
The player went back to the bench, with the coach complaining she'd been allowed to play like that all season until then. The coach put tape over every piece of exposed metal object that couldn't be removed & she was allowed to played after that.
