Would you contact the school?

I’d be at the school talking to teacher and principle about it. If all else, there would be a haircut in the near future, whether the kid wanted it or not.

Kids are cruel. It happens. Him telling the teacher is only going to make it worse, and you contacting the school isn't going to do anything either. Tell him to ignore these kids, that their issues aren't his problem. If he is happy with the way he looks, then nothing else matters. The other kids are probably jealous, and that's triggering it. Maybe one of the girls they like, likes him, so they are making fun of him to get him to cut his hair.

A haircut would be a horrible message to send to her son. It would be telling him to give up his individuality to please others. It would also be telling him to give in to bullies. That never works out well.

The haircut would be the absolute last option, after everything else fails.

They'd see it as a sign of weakness and find something else to bully him about.

So how is forcing the child to change the thing that is causing the problem helping the child? If it's dirty clothes, not taking a bath or brushing teeth, sure those are positive changes to make. However, cutting a child's hair because some one else is using it as a tool to tease, isn't helping the child, it is in fact going to hurt the child. It is going to make the situation worst.
