A mother has slammed her daughter's teacher for combing her locs out of her hair without permission and replacing them with braids.
Micaela Varlack, from Columbus, Georgia, claimed four-year-old Londyn was left with painful inflammation following the bizarre incident.
She said she and her daughter got their hair braided professionally at a salon for $150 three weeks earlier.
But she told how when she picked Londyn up from pre-k at Childare Network on May 6 she was shocked by what the teacher had allegedly done.
'Monday, on May the 6th, I go to pick her up from the daycare,' she said. 'There's a little child who looks like my child with her hair braided.'
'Why would you comb out 32 locs out of a child's hair, to sit down and braid them, part them...'
When Varlack asked the teacher why she didn't call her first, she said her response was simply, 'I just didn't.'
Victoria Sunmola, a hairstylist specializing in locs, said Londyn's teacher 'went overboard' and didn't consider the effect of tampering with a hairstyle like hers.
'It's very disrespectful because she did not have the parent's permission to do it,' Sunmola said.
'The mother spent money on this service, and she crossed the line...more than anything it wasn't her place.'

But and here's the "But"
What mother puts $150.00 worth of weave on a 4 year old's head????
FReeper ladies remember when you were 4? Our moms put our hair in either braids or pony tails and sent us to Nursery School, they did not spend $150.00 on any hair care product for our head. Not even for Johnson's baby shampoo.
First world problems...........
What mother puts $150.00 worth of weave on a 4 year old’s head????
...my question as well
People in a certain culture which shall not be named put extreme, almost life-or-death, importance on female hair style. They are also hypersensitive to any perceived ‘disrespect’.
I’m surprised nobody got killed ...
From what I see with $200 pedicures, $300 nails, $250 hair dos...it’s usually people that dont have a pot to piss in.
Kind of irrelevant but I get your point.
The teacher should be fired.
Mom spent $150 cause she didn’t like combing her daughter’s hair at all. Wash and go.
Ping!......................
Attempting to care....failing to care. Who spends that kind of money on dey keeyids hur?
how that mom spends her money is none of your business though.
Or anyone elses.
What are ‘locs”?
At least the teacher didn’t turn the little girl into a blonde.
“...$150 three weeks earlier.”
I’m guessing the childs hair hasn’t been washed for 3 weeks.
Hopefully the teacher is black, or we will get howling mobs calling for “Justice!”
“What mother puts $150.00 worth of weave on a 4 year old’s head????”
No kidding. That’s my first take on this. Do the salons take EBT cards? Maybe using EBT for groceries frees up that kind of money for you to waste it on a 4 year old’s hair.
Thanks for that post.
Together with the latest phones and the best sneakers.
The mother’s hair was probably 145 and the child was basically thrown in for free. Still the ‘teacher’ was wrong.. Period.
“I’m surprised nobody got killed ...”
There’s plenty of time for mom to stew about it and finish the job.
