Beard Liberation Front says players at Old Trafford may need a lunch beard trim as 27C forecast
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has issued a rare ‘permission to trim or shave’ note to supporters as temperatures are set to rise in some parts of England on Friday.
The campaigners say that hirsute players of both teams in the Second Test between England and Pakistan may consider a lunchtime beard trim as temperatures by tea at Old Trafford are set to reach 27C with a humidity of 78%
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 dont issue trimming advice lightly but a combination of high temperature and humidity can be uncomfortable
