Iranian authorities are clamping down on barbers in Tehran, ordering them strictly to avoid making hairstyles for men considered by the administration as 'Western' and not in accordance with Islamic norms, a press reports said.
The daily Etemad quoted a spokesman of Tehran's Barber Association as saying that offenders of this new instruction would lose their licence and the association's support.
The instruction, which did not clarify what hairstyles would be taboo, also includes a ban on make-up and cosmetics for men in barber shops.
Tehran police earlier this month warned women and men in Iran to observe the Islamic dress code or face consequences.
In the first phase of the operation, vice-squad police were stationed in main squares and in front of shopping centres in Tehran to confront women dressed 'contrary to Islamic norms' such as wearing Bermuda-style pants, tight coats, loose scarves and no socks.
The police had proclaimed that in the second phase of the operation, as of Saturday, men with 'unsuitable outfits' and bizarre hair-cuts would be confronted by the vice squad.

These mullahs are dumber than boxes of rocks. Just when you don’t want to be pissing off the general population, they pull this stunt as well as the one with the womans’s dresses.

The mullahs of Iran are falling into more madness.
ah yes,.... another step towards the Talibanization of Iran.
I guess this means that the popular "Don King $10 Special" is out.
Madness. The Mullahs are medieval... no actually stone-age.
70 years ago, under the rule of Reza Shah, women were forcefully prohibited from wearing the veil and men were required by law to wear western clothes.
....also includes a ban on make-up and cosmetics for men in barber shops.

Waiting for the reaction of the SanFrancisco crowd.

According to this article “Iranian police have warned barbers against ... plucking the eyebrows of their male customers...”

So now the unibrow is required by Sharia law?
“Just when you don’t want to be pissing off the general population..”
You don’t understand - the mullahs are not concerned about pissing anyone off in Iran. They have the guns, remember?
Now take a good look at what the dems are trying to accomplish; the disarming of the American public. See the parallel?

They fear the John Edwardsization of Iran.
What is a Western haircut? Oh yeah, anything civilized.
That's certainly explicit (not!), except how much make-up and cosmetics are Iranian men wearing?
confront women dressed 'contrary to Islamic norms' such as wearing Bermuda-style pants, tight coats, loose scarves and no socks.
Do some women really dress like that in Iran? What do they do, stay up nights watching Brittany Spears reports?:)
