U.S. Navy Now allows Black Women to Wear Their Natural Hair

by Teddy Grant, July 12, 2018
 

The U.S. Navy announced on Wednesday that it will allow servicewomen to wear different types of hairstyles, including ponytails and locs, the Associated Press reports.

Black women have long requested for changes in the Navy’s rules about hair for female servicemembers.
 
 The policy, which went into effect on Wednesday, was announced by Yeoman First Class LaToya Jones on a Facebook Live event on Tuesday, according to the AP.
