I chose my hairdresser (salon owner) initially because i liked the style she sported, cut and colour, and i've been with her for 5 years now.
btw, she's Lebanese. could be muslim or christian of scientologist, for all i care. i'm interested in having my hair done by someone who can. she has never failed me. the test has clearly been in the ongoing years she's taken care of my hair, but, again, it was because of how she looked when i initially met her which brought my business to her.
Muslim hairdresser accuses salon owner who objected to her headscarf of 'blatant' religious discrimination
The opening shots in a £34,000 employment battle between a pink-haired salon owner and a headscarf-wearing Muslim stylist were fired yesterday with an accusation of "blatant" religious discrimination.
Bushra Noah, 19, is claiming that amount in compensation after being turned down for a job at the Wedge salon, which specialises in "urban, edgy and funky" cuts.
Owner Sarah Desrosiers, 32, says it is an "absolutely basic" job requirement that stylists should have their hair on show if they are to cut other people's. She says she faces financial ruin if she loses the case.

It IS a basic requirement for the job, IMO. she's trying to pull a fast one and milk a small business owner for more than the small business owner's worth. and would she have even got the job anyway, headscarf or no? political correctness gone wild. business owners must be allowed to select their staff to their liking.
not one single penny should Bushra Noah get! :furious: :furious: :furious:
