To all those clean-shaven people who think your face needs to be just as it is in your passport when you travel abroad, good news! You may grow your dreadlocks, shave off that beard, color your hair crimson, and do as your mood dictates! Just keep that hair off your eye, and bring down those glasses. There are no restrictions on how and where you wear your hair!

The biometric recognition techniques only want you to keep the area around your eye, nose and mouth clear, as it measures the precise distance between these facial features, as well as patterns on the iris.

Now that I have made my point on a matter I spent hours discussing with some fickle-minded fashionistas who bust out a new look every day, I will focus on getting some real work done.
