Do you think it is sexist for a barber to refuse to cut a woman's hair?

In 2013, a woman walked into a barbers to get a haircut, asking the barber for ‘an undercut’.
The barber said that she was not able to cut women’s hair and would get in trouble if she did so.

It was also claimed that the owner of the representative of the company said that the staff were not qualified to cut women’s hair and that it was an insurance issue.

Evidently the woman attempted to sue the barbers on the grounds of gender discrimination which was eventually dismissed by the courts.
