it's not a matter of trimming; if the article is anything to go by, they want her to straighten her hair.
What article? This is a duckbear topic, he makes shit up that's never in the actual stories and doesn't provide links for that reason. Here is the source he's plagiarizing, and it says nothing about "straightening" it.
The issue is also not her afro, it's how messy it is. This is from the school's guide to hair styles:
The extensive handbook later specifies, for 'Young Men' in particular, that 'No fad haircuts are allowed. This includes but is not limited to Mohawks, designs cut into hair, colored tips, or Afros that if stretched would reach beyond the eyebrows or the collar.'
Irrelevant now either way, based on people ITT's reaction to this type of situation.
we have told these dorks at least a million times that her hair isn't even messily groomed lol, of course who knows better about black hair than non blacks lol ---
