Ah. Is she half black? Or super tanned? Is that why it is an issue that she has bleached hair? I was expecting something more wild instead of blonde.

I mean I don't want to racially profile but she looks to be a POC with light-brown-to-blonde hair. Even if she did color her hair (no pun intended) it's not a remotely outlandish color, even to a religious organization like Chick Fil A. And that's burying the lede on "So What If It Was Fire Engine Red, Why Should They Care?"
