Allow recommendation regarding hairstyle? (6)
I believe the answer is:
permit
'allow' is the definition.
(I know that allow can be written as permit)
'recommendation regarding hairstyle?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'hairstyle?' could be 'perm' (perm is a hairstyle) and 'perm' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'it' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for permit that I've seen before include "Consent to, allow" , "Allow, authorise" , "Licence -- license" , "Allow, sanction" , "Let; enabling document" .)
