forcing people to learn to do a specific hair type is completely illegal and unconstitutional.

any school thats worth a damn has already been teaching this for YEARS. I went to a technical high school 2006-2010 for hair and it was part of the circulum back then... why the hell would it not be!?

Racists not understanding that learning white hair has always been a standard and expectation. Licensed black hair dressers had to go out of their way to find resources to do different black hairstyles

yep, because if you’re unable to do hair of all people, you’re not a hairstylist and should not hold that permit or certificate

I don't know any Black woman going to a white hair dresser, so what's the actual point of this?

If you get a license to service all you should be trained for all hair types I fear this is common sense

that's fucking ridiculous. you shouldn't be forced to spend money on your schooling learning something you won't use later. you get a job at a salon doing what you specialize in. that's why we go to people who do our hair type/style.

Yeah you can force everyone to learn it, but how many of them are actually going to be good at it? Lol.

And black people will still go to only black hairdressers/barbers etc.. 💀 ridiculous. No one should need to know how to do black hair unless thats their main type of customers.
