Disney’s New Look of the Day: Starting February 3rd, Disneyland employees will be allowed to grow a beard following a landmark revision to the Walt Disney Company’s infamous “Disney Look.”
Some restrictions apply: The facial hair can’t be longer than a quarter-inch. And soul patches are still prohibited as well they should be.
Many of the other notoriously strict dress codes are still in place as well: No tattoos, body piercings, “extreme” hairstyles, and straps on sleeveless tops must be at least 3 inches wide.
Still, the acceptance of beards marks an important attitude adjustment at the House that Cartoon Mice Built.
“They want to stay tradition-based, and they also want to be current,” Disney culture chronicler David Koenig told the LA Times. “They don’t want it to become a museum of what entertainment used to be like.”

the weirdest one to me is that you can’t have colored glasses. Brad’s cousin works at Disney and she had glasses that were black frames, but they had purple on the inside, and she had to get new ones to wear to work.
