Texas’s CROWN Act that bans discrimination based on natural hair and hairstyles does not apply to hair length, a judge determined Thursday, ruling in favor of the Barbers Hill Independent School District. The trial for a student who was suspended by Barbers Hills ISD for his hairstyle was held on Thursday. School officials said Darryl George, 18, was suspended due to his locks exceeding the length limit in the school's dress code. #Crownact #barbershillhighschool
