Okay, this will really show my age ... Years ago, it might have been a Points of Emphasis entry, in the interest of safety, the officials could direct a player to restrain his/her long hair, particularly a long braided ponytail. I don't have the particular year for specific reference. One of the reccomended methods to restrain the hair was by tucking it into the back of the jersey.
