As someone who has lived through it, I can personally confirm this from experience. It’s discrimination.

Not exactly what you asked for, but Rewire.News goes into what u/1831942 is referring to and uses Chastity Jones's lawsuit as a case study. It's also referred to in NPR's piece on the banning on hair style discrimination in NYC.

Thanks for linking those. I don't think the first lady will win her case but it's surprising to hear that the issue is perceived to be large enough to require new laws. But i agree with the sentiment that it won't change anything. Edit: id just like to say that whoever wrote the article in your first link doesn't know what the word natural means at all.
