Recently Iran has banned Western style haircuts and the plucking of eyebrow hair. If you would naturally have a unibrow, the single unbroken eyebrow, you have no choice. You have to look like the guy below. Plucking your eyebrows is against the law.

Oh, the huge manatee!
People are supposed to have two eyebrows. Monsters.

Young Iranian 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.
The punk rock movement is hitting Iran... from the past!

Although, I can most certainly understand the ban when I see this repugnance. What the hell are you thinking, bitch?!

It looks like a toilet brush with streaky, yellowish poo residue over it.

Besides the ban on plucking eyebrows, I'm beginning to feel these bans are a-ok.

It's the guy from CSI!
Have they actually banned Western hairstyles or are they just forbidding barbers to cut them?

I wonder how much more the Iranian authorities can do before segments of Iranian society start rioting.
These are all very minor bans, but they're also churlish and are symptomatic of slightly deranged leadership who'd probably ban independent thought if they knew how to measure it.
Behold...the 11th Commandment:
-Thou shalt not rock thy mullet, for yea, it is soooo five minutes ago...
But beyond that, Iran is REALLY going out of its way to adopt laws and regulations that we get it accepted by the global community...
