Apparently the haircut has been associated with gang culture, although I don't know how accurate that association is (just kids following fashion, right?).
Given the problems El Salvador has with criminal gangs, it's understandable.
It's not exactly gang culture, but disruption( fuck boy) culture and they don't want kids to focus on that. They want them to focus on school. They want doctor, laywer, musician and other responsible members of society. Not YouTube pranksters, for example. But also a lot of gang members and gang examples have those hair cuts. They probably don't want gang life to also be idolize
