Nuking colored facial hair tags

Posted under Tags

They seem like tag bloat. I can't see the statistics (or if I can I have no idea how to) but I'd be surprised if too many people are searching for/against facial hair colors, especially since the majority of the time they're the same color as the hair on their heads. Not to mention black facial hair had some mistags for what is arguably artistically licensed stubble rather than actually black hair.

These tags are fine for now. Maybe if someone starts tagging ordinary beard colors on thousands of posts and it turns out nobody cares about that, we can revisit this.

These tags currently get zero searches, but that's expected because they're so small. Facial hair itself only gets around 300 searches per week. In comparison pubic hair gets 20k searches per week. But individual pubic hair colors only get 100 or so. Once again the value of color tags is greatly overestimated.
