NATIONAL NEWS: OUCH! MILITARY MEMBERS FACE FIRING FOR SHAVING WAIVER

Clean-shaved Trump Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered service members who require a medical waiver for shaving for more than one year be fired from the military.

The condition - known as pseudofolliculitis barbae - disproportionately affects Black men.

Also called razor burn, it is associated with frequent shaving required by Pentagon grooming standards, according to the military newspaper Stars and Stripes.
