I just found this article about a white police officer who got cornrows and was told to remove them, when Officers of another ethnicity were allowed to have them. This actually reminded me when I was trying to grow my hair out and the bangs kept hanging in my face. I didn't think barrettes or a headband looked professional, so someone offered to braid my bangs to keep my hair out of my face; think a of a headband, only of braided hair. I was told I could not have braids in my hair because I was not the 'appropriate ethnicity.' Go figure.
