Iran Officially Bans ‘Metrosexuals’

Now banned in Tehran, the “metrosexual” look
From Reuters:
Iranian police have warned barbers against offering Western-style hair cuts or plucking the eyebrows of their male customers, Iranian media said on Sunday.
Violators (of Iran’s Islamic Sharia law) can receive lashes, fines and imprisonment.
Iranian young men have in recent years started paying more attention to the way they look and dress, especially in affluent parts of the capital Tehran. Spiked up hair, by using gel,is known as the Khorusi (Rooster) style and some also use make-up.
Far be it from me to agree with an Islamic cleric on pretty much anything, but I have to admit supporting them on this one. There is no reason a man should ever need to put gel in his hair and male eyebrow plucking should be reserved for those with “unibrows.”
