How come pentecostal men cant have facial hair?

Having grown up in the pentecostal church, I can shed a little light on that subject.

In the 60's and 70's the only people who had facial hair were the "hippies." Part of the doctrine of that "version" of christianity is to "come out from among them and be separate." This applies mostly to the outward appearance. To not be mistaken for the sinful "hippies," most pentecostal preachers insisted that their "saints" be clean shaved. In fact for a long time, the denomination wouldn't allow any of their "pastors" to have any kind of facial hair. This has relaxed as a "standard" in their rulebook over the years, however, some of the "old time" preachers still think this should be the case. Facial hair makes people look "worldly," and shouldn't be on a saint of god. The honestly believe that a person... any person should be able to look at them and know, for a fact, that they are pentecostal, even if they know absolutely nothing about them.

I know it's strange, but that's the way they believe. People create doctrine out of some of the strangest portions of the bible and expect EVERYBODY to go along with it.
