Why in the word would you need a license just to braid hair?
Braiding hair is a part of black culture lmao. Doing other black women’s natural hair period is a part of our culture?? We don’t need a license it’s in our roots….this is extremely anti black.
They don’t even teach how to do black hair in most hair schools anyway, why get a license from a school that doesn’t even teach you about braiding anyway??
This is a way to target black business owners, smh
my hair stylist actually told me that in cosmetology schools, they are not taught how to do natural hair. there is no way to get a license doing natural hair in many places because curriculum do not even teach them. like, natural hair isn’t taught in these schools.
so black women have to learn from their mothers, grand mothers, aunts, etc…etc…it’s a culture. so yeah, this is to target black business owners.

As a Cosmetologist I can actually say that You all need to fight this tooth and nail. We need to either fight to get it taught in the Cosmetology schools or we need to get it so that you all can get a braiding licence where you have to prove that you know the sanitation laws that salon owners have to follow.
Hell, just keep doing it illegally. Just don’t call your self a braiding parlor or better yet do it out of y’all’s home and if the state people come knocking say you ain’t doing it for money. That’s how some of us legal stylists do shit on the fucking side… Like me.
