Nationwide — Micaela Varlack, an African American mom from Columbus, Georgia, is upset after discovering her 4-year-old daughter Londyn’s locs were combed out by her teacher without asking for her permission.

On April 14, Varlack had her daughter’s hair styled into locs. She spent $150 on the service, which included washing, detangling, conditioning, starting the locs, and blow-drying.

But 3 weeks later, Londyn came home from her pre-kindergarten at Childcare Network with braids instead of locs.

“Monday, on May the 6, I go to pick her up from the daycare,” she recounted, according to WLBT. “There’s a little child who looks like my child with her hair braided.”

Varlack said she was shocked upon knowing her daughter’s hair was rebraided without her knowing.

“Why would you comb 32 locs out of a child’s hair, to sit down and braid them, part them…,” Varlack said. “You didn’t call me, and her literal response was, ‘I just didn’t.’”
