“Why would you wear your hair like that today of all days? It’s not appropriate for a leadership position, it looks unprofessional.”
The prefect coordinator at my high school when she catches sight of my braids (which looked bomb, might I add!!!), before instructing me to tie it back before my photos. She goes on to explain, as though it should be obvious, that as a representative of the school I have a responsibility to uphold a certain image. She later complains about my “stupid braids” to the school and vice captain.
btw, this teacher is also head of wellbeing.
