Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm firmly stuck with Nina Simone's version (it is the only real one), with brief intrusions of Boombastic. I'm pretty happy with that, but I wish I'd brought headphones to work today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So I was looking at the Onion earlier, and I had to double check that I still wasn't there when I saw this headline:
Vt. Barber Says Not Good at Cutting Blacks' Hair
No, that was in the New York Times, via the AP. [link]

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

There have been a bunch of stories like that, though it's more usually a hairdresser who says she can't style a black woman's hair.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
BINAO: Fry or Gatiss?
Gattis, all of the way.
BINAO: Cumberbatch or Freeman?
Cumberbatch, even dark. Much more so if natural though.

Ah! I was trying to imagine you owning a Juice Newton album and having a really hard time ...

Vt. Barber Says Not Good at Cutting Blacks' Hair
WHY IS THAT NEWS? The last time paid a a white barber to cut my hair, it was a nightmare. Unless it's a straight all-over job with the clippers, I want to see either naps on his head (making an assumption here) or evidence of his previous good work.

Ha! I've never heard that version all the way through. Didn't learn it existed until uni.

WHY IS THAT NEWS?
I was wondering. It sounds less like, "ahhhhhh, racism" and more like, "oh, skillset."
Heck, I get twitchy with fine, wavy hair about who cuts it. News flash: different hair is different.
