I watch videos of hairdressers doing braids on black hair. It really is an art, and takes HOURS.

This doesn’t make sense that hairdressers would be forced into working with hair that really needs specialized care. Even washing it wrong can mess it up. If I were a black person, I would want someone who really knows how and WANTS to do the long, tedious process of styling/maintaining my hair, and not someone who is being forced to learn the bare minimum about how to do it (the article says overall training time to get licensed won’t be affected). I guess the stylist could charge extra for the skill and time spent, but then that would probably be illegal, too. SMH

This stinks of virtue signaling by city hall.

Some black hair styles are ridiculously elaborate. Are they expecting everyone to know any and every style?

This is going to be jet fuel for lawsuits.

“This stinks of virtue signaling by city hall.”

Sadly, it’s a STATE law.
