Beard Liberation Front issues rare beard shaving permit as temperatures set to reach 37C
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has issued a rare ‘permission to shave’ note to supporters as temperatures are set to hit 37C in some parts of England by Friday.
The campaigners say that it would be exceptional to shave the beard, but in the absence of appropriate cooling mechanisms it is authorised in extremis.
Generally it is recommended that the beard is cooled by the use of a hand held fan or by visiting the freezer department of a supermarket.
However both may be impractical due to mask wearing in current circumstances
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, we expect most beard wearers to indulge in a light trim at worst where appropriate over the next few days. However if it really does become too hot on this occasion shaving is an approved action
