It would be great if there was another solution, but I'm not sure there is.
In recent years at my old high school which now lies in "The War Zone" of Albuquerque some of the girls hide razor blades in their hair which they use to reach out and slash other girls as they pass in the halls. Any metal detectors installed would need to be very sensitive and properly operated to find them.

What is Albuquerque's 'War Zone' and why is it call that way? - Quora

It happens elsewhere as well. NYPD: Suspect in Queens school fight hid razor blades in her hair; 3 hurt | abc7ny.com
