i need to get rid of the facial hair on my lip because i am about to start a new school and i dont want to have an upper lip thats hairy! then people are going to make fun of me! its very embarrassing!!=[

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

Tweez it, wax it, shave it, or more permanently remove it through electrolysis.

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL WHEN U START A NEW SCHOOL U DONT WANT TO LOOK GROSS AND UGLY SO WHAT I WOULD USE IS NAIR TO TAKE IT OFF IT WORKS!HAVE FUN AT YOUR NEW SCHOOL!

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

Don't shave it !!!!

you can bleach it, or you can get it wax

go to a nail salon they will do it its quick and like $5-7 bucks

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

uhh wax it that always works :)

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

Nair or waxing

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

In Walgreen's/CVS/ Rite Aid depending on where you live most of these store have them, it's a razor type tool but no blades that would actually cut you. It's cheap and good

8 in 1 Wet / Dry Trimmer, Model Number 5545-300

by Wahl

Many people will say to use Nair but at your age this is not good to get dependent on that, it can irritate the skin and age it faster.

Wax isn't good at your age either

DO NOT SHAVE IT!! THAT'S THE ABSOLUTE WORST THING YOU CAN DO.

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

I use wax strips. It gets rid of the hair for ages and it doesn't make it grow back stronger. If its any consellation so many women get it and stress over it, even the good looking ones. To get rid of it permenantly apparently electrolysis/lasering is good but I've never tried it.

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

tweeze or wax it. DONT go to a nail shop though, those people aren't licensed to wax so go to an esthetician. They are not much more expensive than a nail shop!

What are ways you can remove facial hair from you upper lip?

girl I have it too! but its okay- you have different options

1- Bleach it...

There are a lot of good products for this, and it is probably the least harmful. The hair will still be there but it won't be noticeable, and you only have to bleach it every other month or so (try Sallys beauty supply for bleacking products)

2- wax it...

This is also a really good idea and the nair strips are best (you can get them pretty much anywhere- I normally get mine at Target) The only thing is you may have to wax it every 2 weeks

3-pluck it..

just use tweezers. I would try one of the other 2 options first though..

4- shave it.

Ive done this a couple times when I was desperate. If you need to get rid of the hair fast- like your about to go on a date do it...but it does make the hair more coarse and darker (looking) than before later on

hope this helped!! good luck..

How much does laser hair removal typically cost (facial)?

I have an excessive amount of facial hair and Im tired of living inside because of the embarresment.

I need answers and help if you can.

Who should I see? (ive heard spas cost the most and shouldnt be considered)

How many treatments does it usually take? I know everyone is different, but.. how many treatments did it take for you?

How "permanant" is this?

Was it worth it for you?

I heard it works best on dark haired people with lighter skin?

Any info you can give me would be wonderful.

No info on waxing or home kits please. Been there done that. Ive had enough with the crap at cvs and other pharmacies.

How much does laser hair removal typically cost (facial)?

Well this might help. I have a friend of mine who is a transexual, so anything I tell you will be the most extreme since this person was once a man. He went to aplace in Cincinatti, Ohio. I do not know where you are from but I am sure there is one close to you. The treatments for the face were usually about 150 per visit and he was completely hairfree on the face in about 5 visits. As you said everyone is different so I do not know how much facial hair you mean, so it could possibly cost you less and take less treatments. As far as length, I am about 80 percent sure it is completely permanent, and I would think more so with a lady who is not by nature supposed to have facial hair. Either way I hope I have helped.

How much does laser hair removal typically cost (facial)?

$0.99 at the dollar store

How much does laser hair removal typically cost (facial)?

At my dermatologist's office, it's about 250 for laser hair removal. You have to let your facial hair grow in first, which is why I haven't done it yet. You can shave the hairs off just use witch hazel right after or you'll get bumps. I am curious to see everyone else's responses, because I would love to get it done I just can't let my facial hair grow in, that's embarrasing.

How much does laser hair removal typically cost (facial)?

Many plastic surgeons either do it or work with people who do it. It should be 200-300 dollars a visit, and can take anywhere from 3-5 visits to completely get rid of any hair, meaning it will never come back. I've never had it but an indian friend of mine had the same problems you have and loves it. She said it was pretty painless and was totally worth the financial investment. I'm not sure about the working better on light skin dark haired people, but it definitely worked well on my friend and will work for you, too!

What's the best way to remove facial hair without shaving? (for guys)?

I've always had fast growing facial hair - ever since I was 13 years old. It's a little silly shaving everyday because most of it's completely grown back just a few hours later.

I've taken a look at home Laser hair removal kits as well as electric shavers - sadly neither of these made much difference, so what options have I got left to me?.

I don't want to do something that'll discolor my skin, but I hear that waxing might not be a bad option - how long does this usually last? (and is a home waxing just as effective as a professional one?)

I've also been reading up on Yahoo Answers about electrolysis - is this a better option than waxing, and does it cost more?

What's the best way to remove facial hair without shaving? (for guys)?

lazer hair removal would be the best option(go to a professional though, dont buy your own kits)...trust me ive had it done..its kinda expensive but youll be glad you did it!!

What's the best way to remove facial hair without shaving? (for guys)?

well i dont like to shave so i use Nair hair removal. It really works and it grows baq after like a week.my hair grows fast too.

What's the best way to remove facial hair without shaving? (for guys)?

laser hair surgery is the ultimate solution. try waxing first

What's the best way to remove facial hair without shaving? (for guys)?

I always like the flexibility of changing my look. Clean one week, rugged looking the next, beard and mustache the week after. Pehaps you might want to try experimenting with styles which longer facial hair.

Waxing and chemical hair removers like Nair will remove the hair by the roots, so the hair will take longer to grow back. I think that might buy you like 2 or 3 days. Home waxing is the same thing as professional waxing. Of course, and it hurts just as much. Imagine pealing duct tape off your skin.. that's basically the feeling. Helps to have someone else rip it off quick.

Electroysis and lazer hair removal is somewhat costly compared to shaving. However it's permanent if you're looking to stay baby smooth for the rest of your life since it kills the hair folicals under your skin. I never heard of any guys getting this, seems somewhat gay to me.

Any female out here ever had her whole facial hair removed?if so what methods did you opt for?

i.e. all facial hair meaning teh whole face, not just eyebrows being plucked, upper lip, lower lip, chin and sides but the whole face? let me knw thanks coz i dont knw how to go about it? i have dark hair and so its kinda noticable but not so much. its survivable but i dont seem to like it persoanlly. i dont like bleeching coz it stands out even more as my skin colour is not too fairish and waxing, well my one of my mates had lil spots all over frm every hair pore on her face so she was covered and so im not sure. im talking about forhead, cheeks, chin, sides of face etc. let me knw thanks.

Any female out here ever had her whole facial hair removed?if so what methods did you opt for?

Go for threading, but instead of going to a salon and spending a fortune use this hair remover called eze-tweeze which like threading and waxing removes the hair from the root but is much less painful and you won't get the spots. Check out their website which gives you the full description of what it is, all I can say is since using it I have not touched wax or a thread to remove the hair on my face.

Any female out here ever had her whole facial hair removed?if so what methods did you opt for?

You should go for waxing. Its the method that will last the longest - should last up to 6 weeks. I know you said your friend was covered in spots from it but this is very rare to happen. I have senstive skin and wax my upper lip and eye brows and its fine. Its red after so its best to have it done at a time when you will be staying in for the night etc to let the redness go. You would be best going to a salon as its most of your face you want doing. However you can buy some very good ready waxed strips for face in drug stores - that work really well and are very easy to use.

Good Luck

Any female out here ever had her whole facial hair removed?if so what methods did you opt for?

Try threading. Have it done at a salon.

Any female out here ever had her whole facial hair removed?if so what methods did you opt for?

laser light therapy at your local beauty salon is probably best as with multiple treatments it becomes permanent so you wont have to go every 4 weeks or so to be waxed. I have used it on small areas on my face. Best to discuss with your local beauty therapist who will tell you the pros and cons of each option.

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

I am still shaving. I have tried bleaching and waxing and it doesnot work for me. I can't afford to laser remove it.My face looks like a male with dark hair and I get shadows in the afternoon.I even quit shaving for about 2 days and applied alot of makeup but it didnot help!!Can anybody help me with this problem??I am embrassed with my facial hair!!

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

Lazer treatments is the only thing you can do, I believe. It's expensive but I would think it would be totally worth it.

The only problem will be is that you have to let it grow out to a certain length prior to the treatments - I feel for ya, hon! I hope it work out.

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

O, im so sorry, thats is somthin very hard to deal with because you cannot hide it. maybe this has somthin to do with your natural testosteron not being countered well enough by your estrogen, ask your doctor about birth controll to help your body counter extra testosteron.

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

im sorry 2 here that (ewwwwwwww) anyway lazer is the only option and again im so sorry!!!!!!!!!

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

I would say to save the money up if possible and have it laser romoved...I don't think there is any other option...unless you talk to a professional about the waxing thing...all the money you put into waxing and shaving could be saved and put into a fund for laser hair removal. In the meantime, get an electric shaver you can take with you and keep shaving it. Hope all works out for you!

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

wax it. i have really bad hair on my face and recently i got fed up and waxed it. It made my face really dry and really zitty for an entire week and a half. but now i dont have facial hair. the skin stuff has to go away eventually. Laser treatment would be the best, though. waxing sux.

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

Electrosis (sp?) would be the best thing. Since you can't afford that, buy yourself a good pair of tweezers--that have a flat edge. Go to work pulling them out--it will hurt (you could try freezing the area first), but the hairs will be slower growing back in and also they won't be so brittle. They will be lighter and thinner--but you have to be persistent and keep tweezing. Good Luck. (Applying hair remover helps, but not in the long run. Tweezing is best).

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

Laser treatments are probably the only way to go. If it is just your chin the costs shouldn't be too too much. I have had my chin, legs, underarms and bikini done. I am on a payment plan, no interest for 1 year. It is almost paid off. The credit card company I use is called Care Credit. But it is only worth it if you plan on paying the bill off within the 12 months. If you can't possibly do that, then I would suggest not to bother, the APR is outrageous. And start saving my dear, it is sooooo worth it. My self esteem is much better now. I still have body hair that I don't want to have in certain places that a female, I feel shouldn't have, but compared to the way I used to look, I can deal with it now. Good luck to you.

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

I know how you feel, I am cursed with dark hair on my face. I've recently learned it's especially noticible in natural light. So far everyone has said lazer. I could never do that, I heard it hurts heh. If you really want to get lazer just save up. You did say you waxed and it didn't work. What wax did you use? I use the Nair wax strips for the face, and they work pretty good. I do hope you good luck in getting rid of it. I know how bad it can be with facial hair.

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

Try this

www.bebeautiful.com/product/309415

it's called Epila Laser Hair Remover

I have a BIG problem with my facial hair!Last year I made a mistake by shaving my chin.?

Please shop around for a good laser treament center that has payment plans, that is what I did and I the same problem. Don't listen to people who say that they "hear that it hurts" if you can wax then this little bit of tingle will be so worth beautiful smooth hair free skin forever!

Are Buddhist monks allowed to have facial hair? beards?

are buddhist monks allowed to have any facial hir at all? i know they can't have any hair on their heads, but maybe like a beard or something?

Are Buddhist monks allowed to have facial hair? beards?

Yes.

I've know some fuzzy monks. The bald head thing is traditional. Another word for traditional is old fashioned.

Originally, shaving your head was to unattach yourself from your civilian role. Now a days, modern monks can easily be attached to their roles as being old fashioned monks with their heads shaved. At this point, it's better not to concern monks with their hair at all, this way there is nothing to be attached or unattached to.

PS-I'm talking about Zen monks, real Zen monks.

Are Buddhist monks allowed to have facial hair? beards?

Nope, they can't have any hair on their bodies....no kind of hair, if you know what i mean.

Are Buddhist monks allowed to have facial hair? beards?

The lama I used to hear for lam rim teachings had a goatee-sort of thing. He was a little crazy, though, I must say...and he was even one born, raised, and went through his training in Nepal. (One of his favorite stories was about how he and another potential monk broke out of the monastery one night when they were about 15-16 and went off to see movies...)

How come i dont have much facial hair, is there a cure for this?

all the males in my family have great facial hair and can grow a full beard. all i can grow is a moustache and a goatee and a little on the sides and the cheeks. none on my neck. what is up with this?? is this some stuff from the the chemicals from all the wars and stuff weve used over the years to stunt some people genes??

How come i dont have much facial hair, is there a cure for this?

How old are you? If you are still a teenager early 20s you could start to grow more facial hair.If not-who cares most women like men clean shaven or with just a mustache anyway.

How come i dont have much facial hair, is there a cure for this?

Those chemicals are called genes.

Perhaps you're more woman than man?

How come i dont have much facial hair, is there a cure for this?

You don't have much male hormones. Just accept it as natural. Everybody is unique and different.

Only monkeys need to have lots of hair on their face to be natural.

Need a Girl's perference on guy's facial hair features.?

I am currently shaved clean, but I can grow a really nice dark shaggy beard. Like those 5 o clock shadows some actors grow out. I am the typical tall, dark, and handsome type. I love wearing all styles of clothing anything from Hollister clothing to a funky indie hair style. I recently decided to grow out that little patch of hair underneath my bottom lip and right above the chin. Is that sexy or corny. Ladies you probably have seen this and I was wondering if it is appealing to ya'll. If not what are your favorite type of facial hair grooming. I will not accept clean shaved as a answer. Gotee or Long Sideburns perhaps? Skinny Sideburns? What do you like on guys?

Need a Girl's perference on guy's facial hair features.?

Nothing turns me on more then a perfect done gotee....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Need a Girl's perference on guy's facial hair features.?

5 oclock shadow is super sexy! Grr

Need a Girl's perference on guy's facial hair features.?

I'm a very little facial hair kinda girl.

Need a Girl's perference on guy's facial hair features.?

Actually hun, it depends on what your face looks like. (*seriously*) The way a person's face is shaped and their facial features really makes a difference. One of my Ex's from college had a goatee, thinner sideburns...then shaved and just left a soul patch...then went clean with larger sideburns...it was all hot. Chris Daughtry (American Idol) has a versatile face like that also.

Now on the other hand, my hubby would not look good with facial hair. It just doesn't suit him. My advice...try one out and then go to a bar/club/outdoor venue and ask some ladies there. Most women would love to help! :-)

Does using a bikini trimmer on your facial hair make it grow thicker or/and darker? i need to find a

I have tried waxing my facial hair, but my mom wont do it for me and i need to find a way to take care of it myself. I have way too much hair to pluck it, and I cant afford electrolysis. Shaving is out of the question. HELP!!!!!

Does using a bikini trimmer on your facial hair make it grow thicker or/and darker? i need to find a solution!

Waxing is your best bet. Salons will do it for cheep.

The bikini trimmer thing is the same as shaving. If you get rid of the hair that way, it will eventually turn into a daily event AND you risk ingrown hairs (yuck and OUCH). When your hair grows back, it will be coarser/prickly until it grows out completely. Don't go there.

When you get older, save up for laser hair removal. It works best if the hair is dark and your skin is light.

How do I get rid of excess facial hair?

A medication which ive stopped has given me facial hair. had a steriod in it. will the hair go away? how long?

if it was a long term use usually it would take up to a year to get out of your DNA, but only taking it for a short time(like 3-4 weeks) it should go away in about 3-4 weeks.

How to temporarily get rid of facial hair?

Hey guys.

I am 16 next February and I basically have a bit of facial hair. When I let it grow it gets no more than 7mm long but it grows fast and is annoying as noone else my age has to shave.

Thanks guys

What the heck is up with my facial hair development?!?

Alright, I'm 17 years old, and I have tons of facial hair, but it's all on the underside of chin- I have almost nothing on my cheeks and moustache area...WTF?? I don't really have sideburns, either, it is ALL on the bottom of my chin area and down to my neck. I wouldn't be worried, if it didn't seem like my face was lagging behind big time. I had severe acne before, and I have a lot of scars now, so maybe my hair follicles got messed up or something? I took Ritalin for three years before, and I was a vegetarian for several months- could these have messed up my growth??

What the heck is up with my facial hair development?!?

You're only 17, no worries man.

Your body still has so much development to go.

Also, some people just take longer to fill in. On the other hand, you may never be able to grow a full beard. Many people have patches where they are unable to grow hair at all.

Ritalin is suspected to hinder growth/development, so it is possible that you *may* be lagging behind because of it's use. It has never been known to stagnate growth though, so you shouldn't expect that you'd never grow out the hair because of it.

Your vegitarian diet for a few months wouldn't have messed up your growth permanately either. Vegetarian diets in and of themselves do not cause such things. An improper vegetarian diet maybe, but I would classify that under malnourishment regardless of what diet you were under. In any case, there would not be anything significant in three months time that would make you not grow hair.

And no, hair follicles do not grow back within scar tissue. Still though, surely the entire surface isn't a scar is it? Surely you'd have some hairs here and there sticking out from between the scars.

For areas without scars just wait and see. You have a lot of growing still yet, and best of luck to ya bud.

What the heck is up with my facial hair development?!?

You don't worry about it, when I start dating my husband he was 17 and had the same problem..........he started to grow it evenly when he turns 22(more or less)so.....don't worry be happy!!!!!

What the heck is up with my facial hair development?!?

hun, not really everyone grows hair in different places. I mean, One of my friends (female) has back hair. Pretty disgusting, huh?

Can i use the same machine to remove "facial hair" which i use for arms and legs?

I have lot of hair on my chin (thick and black) and less thicker on my face, i feel embaressment, i want to get rid of them,

Can i use the philips hair removing machine to remove the facial hair. it dont work like shave or razor, infact this machin have lot of tweezers init. what u people recommend, Have you any other cheaper source ???????????? (except laser and electrolosis)

Can i use the same machine to remove "facial hair" which i use for arms and legs?

hmm, are you talking about an epilaptor (sp?)? cos if it is one of those, then it's not advisable to use on your face. I think it would be good to use those wax strips for facial hair (Nair or Veet)..try it! they work!! ;))

Can i use the same machine to remove "facial hair" which i use for arms and legs?

Use a wax. Nads is good and there are lots of them at walmart and the beauty supply store. The beauty supply store is the cheapest and they will help you with how it is used. My daughter has thick ones also and she used the wax from the beauty supply that comes in a small tin. Don't remember the name but I know it cost about 2 dollars.

Can i use the same machine to remove "facial hair" which i use for arms and legs?

Yes you can. It's called a "weedeater" and is available at most fine hardware stores.

Can i use the same machine to remove "facial hair" which i use for arms and legs?

of course

Can i use the same machine to remove "facial hair" which i use for arms and legs?

the idea that when u have thick black hair in ur chin and use a tweezer , they increase instead of having 2 u will have 4 , this what happened to me but i still use it!! but u can go to a saloon and they can do it for u with something called fatlah, its like a thin threader ( wool or cotton used with the kitting kit!but depend in what country are u .

Can i use the same machine to remove "facial hair" which i use for arms and legs?

why not

Can i use the same machine to remove "facial hair" which i use for arms and legs?

If I were you, I would use wax.

Plucking (tweezing), Shaving, Depilatory creams and Waxing are temporary hair removal methods. Waxing usually lasts for 3 weeks, but it is painful. Electrolysis and laser hair removal are "permanent" hair removal methods but are expensive and you have to find a trained professional, otherwise your skin could be damaged.

Any (evolutionary) theories as to why women of certain ethnicity have prominent facial hair?

Women of certain ethnicity have more visible, thick facial hair, and I am not taking about hormonal imbalance or any diseases or conditions.

For example South East Asian, Mediterranean and Mid Eastern women have more prominent facial hair growth, it閳ユ獨 not JUST the colour of the hair either, brunette European women in contrast don閳ユ獩 have that much facial hair, especially on the sides of the face.

Do you have any theories as to why this could be?

I am thinking along the lines of geographical %26amp; climatic factors.

Any (evolutionary) theories as to why women of certain ethnicity have prominent facial hair?

its just genenics, and most women get it when they are older.

Any (evolutionary) theories as to why women of certain ethnicity have prominent facial hair?

They were last to evolve? More male hormones than other nationalities?

Any (evolutionary) theories as to why women of certain ethnicity have prominent facial hair?

two words will answer that. though they may seem weird. sexual selection. that is what the guys liked from say 100yrs ago to well 10000yrs ago. it is just recently that guys decided they like fairly hairless women. it could also have formed in this brief storm of ice ages as an actual advantage, though sexual selection is much more likely.

Any (evolutionary) theories as to why women of certain ethnicity have prominent facial hair?

Perhaps its an "accident" of evolution, being that these cultures have rules of covering a young unmarried woman's face, therefore natural selection based on appearance does not take place. Many countries arrange marriages by offering doweries etc to encourage men to marry them.

This theory is based on the assumption the the men of these races wouldn't like facial hair if they saw their future brides face beforehand.

Any (evolutionary) theories as to why women of certain ethnicity have prominent facial hair?

During human migration facial hair was a protective mechanism against the harmful rays of the sun. As we migrated out of Africa losing our need for pigmentation we acquired hair for protection.

The ears need to be protected from UV rays, wind, heat, etc. depending on the survival necessary. Later on, lack of hair was considered attractive--maybe due a sign of vulnerability.

There shouldn't be. Humans are all so closely related that facial hair can easily be explained by chance lineages within our existing gene set plus a mutation or three. For there to be an evolutionary theory, you would also have to show the existence of a group and selection within that group.

When you try to define what you mean by " South East Asian, Mediterranean and Mid Eastern women" well enough to say they have more visible facial hair, you run into the group problem and probably a circular definition - e.g. " I know they're Mediterranean because they have coarse facial hair."

To show selection, having defined a group that is different, you would have to show a difference beyond chance in the survival of offspring of group members that did or didn't have the trait.

Only at that point should you begin to think of causative factors. Otherwise it become another case of what "everybody knows" being, in fact, wrong.

Sexual differentiation goes further in some races than in others. Not only do different races have various degrees of sexual differentiation, those races that have _less of it_ can swing either toward androgynous or toward gracility.

In the example you mentioned, the women have pronounced facial hair, which is usually considered a male secondary sexual characteristic.

But other races might be somewhat short on differentiation the other way; i.e., the males might lack facial hair and/or have the gentle contours of face that are normally considered feminine.

Still other races differ with both the foregoing sorts by having strongly differentiated genders: viva la difference! Basically, the answer to your question is: racial differences exist.

Sexual selection is the technical term. Arbitrary beauty standards can influence and amplify slight variations if they are in place for long enough.

I need a trimmer that's good for precise facial hair cutting, for things like shape-ups, g-line

I have looked at the Andis line of trimmers, but i'm not sure what i should be looking for when i buy a trimmer. Its for home use for myself, not for professional use. I am going to use it for shaping facial hair. I want one that is easy to use, precise, powerful, good quality (lasts a long time), and won't give me problems. I would also like to use it for trimming my facial hair. Also, it has to have a t-shaped head. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Should the Yankees axe their no long hair/facial hair rule? If they want to land free agents who hav

goat-tees, etc, and if they want their players to feel a bit more relaxed, instead of like an uptight Wall St. banker, why not do away with this stupid rule? Obviously, it isn't working anymore for them. They haven't won a WS in 7 years. The Red Sox, who allow facial hair, have won 2 in the past 4 seasons. In order to compete with their arch-rival, maybe they should 86 this stupid rule, you agree?

Should the Yankees axe their no long hair/facial hair rule? If they want to land free agents who have beards?

It's a dumb old rule, but players usually want to play for NY so much thatthey don't mind neatening up to do so. If it came down to it and they were hindered from signing a player they really wanted just because of that rule, they would get rid of it... it just has not come up yet.

Should the Yankees axe their no long hair/facial hair rule? If they want to land free agents who have beards?

It's a silly rule but since the yankees more than make up for it by overpaying free agents to a disgusting degree. I don't think the players mind shaving or cutting their hair. Look at Johnny Damon, he's the perfect example. He sold out all the fans that made him a superstar for the $$$... because it certainly wasn't for the ring!

Should the Yankees axe their no long hair/facial hair rule? If they want to land free agents who have beards?

Oh yeah, I'm sure the reason the Red Sox win is because they allow facial hair.

You're an idiot.

Wow - you read this answer in a question a few minutes ago - now there are three questions asking this. Original for sure.

Should the Yankees axe their no long hair/facial hair rule? If they want to land free agents who have beards?

I would have to agree with the top 2 posters... I don't think that no facial hair is stopping any free agents.

It's a standard that's been there pretty much since the Boss bought them in '73. It doesn't matter but I will repost a comment from earlier to Hockey Guy:

As far as the question about the goatee being the deal breaker, let's look at the logic on this. Okay you're Santana and you have a goatee. There's this team with 26 world championships offering you millions and a shot at a WS ring, which by the way, when you look in your jewelry box you have several seasons of 1 and done jewelry and that's all you have to show for the talent you have expended. (Theme from Jeopardy starts playing) you're thinking let's see big contract or goatee, big contract or goatee, gee I better take some Exlax so I can think better.

And as far as Damon is concerned, it wasn't Boston or the fans that made him good. He was already decent when he left Oakland.

Let the players do what they want. If a guy can hit 40 hr's, but wants a goat-tee, let him have it. If a pitcher can give you 20 wins but wants a beard, let him keep it.

Management sets the standards they want their players to live by and the players are expected to comply. If they don't like it there are 29 other teams that might want to employ them.

Should the Yankees axe their no long hair/facial hair rule? If they want to land free agents who have beards?

I'm not a yankee fan by any means but they had this rule back when they were winning so I don't think it has anything to do with it. Baseball is a job to these players, if you leave your job for more money and that company offers you more money to look clean, of course you'll do it, you may not like it but you'll do it. All in all, the yankees not winning a world series in a while goes deeper than just this little rule.

Should the Yankees axe their no long hair/facial hair rule? If they want to land free agents who have beards?

It's tradition though. If they let players be shaggy, then I would probably begin a nation-wide petition to make them put names on the back of their jerserys like every other team that isn't as "special" as they are do.

And just because I'm curious, what free agent can the Yankees NOT lure right now because they refuse to shave? If Randy Johnson and Johnny Damon could do it...

Should the Yankees axe their no long hair/facial hair rule? If they want to land free agents who have beards?

Actually that's one of the only things I like about the Yankees. Their players always look classy - clean cut. So many players (and people) today look like homeless people. Its a matter of self-respect. Liek they told Giambi and Damon, "You are a Yankee now, look like one."

For the right amount of $$$...I'd shave anything so I don't think a player's decision will be made to keep his beard over a ton of money!!!???
