Employment question:

Can I be sacked becuase my employer doesn't like the colour of my hair? I workf for Tesco's and I am customer facing; the handbook that I received with my contract states my hair must be 'business like'.

If you do not adhere to the codes of standards, then you can be dismissed. However, it is very unlikely in practice that you would be dismissed due to the colour of your hair. if you have less than a year's service, you do not really have any protection against dismissal.
