The mullet is definitely not in fashion. And if you live in Iran, it's also illegal.



Along with ponytails, elaborate spikes, and long hair, Iran has issued a list of approved Muslim hairstyles in effort to ban the country of "decadent Western cuts."



A photo catalogue of acceptable styles will be published and promoted this month at the 'Modesty and Veil Festival,' according to London's Telegraph.



"The proposed styles are inspired by Iranians' complexion, culture and religion, and Islamic law," said Jaleh Khodayar, who is in charge of a festival.



Short and conservative haircuts have been given the thumbs up. Hair gel is okay, but only if it's used sparingly. But men's eyebrow plucking? Forget about it.



In recent years, Iranian police have raided barber's shops offering "Western hairstyles." Their owners are warned to not repeat their actions.



First time violators will receive an unflattering short-back-and-sides cut. But serial offenders face stiff fines. And barber shops catering to western styles, can be shut down.



The plan is being implemented together with the University of Tehran and the local association of barbers "in order to avoid inappropriate hairstyles and encourage an Islamic culture."



Conservative clerics have called for action against un-Islamic dressers—including women in short coats and men donning low-rise jeans. Ties are also considered a symbol of Western decadence.



Earlier this year, an Iranian cleric blamed women who wear revealing clothing for causing earthquakes.



Hojjat ol-eslam Kazem Sediqi also said promiscuity causes natural disasters.



"Many women who do not dress modestly lead young men astray and spread adultery in society which increases earthquakes," he said.
