Crossword Genius

Tolerate daughter's facial hair (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beard

'facial hair' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'tolerate daughter's' is the wordplay.
'tolerate' becomes 'bear' (synonyms).
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'bear'+'d'='BEARD'

(Other definitions for beard that I've seen before include "In good health; very" , "hair extension" , "Whiskers" , "Vandyke, perhaps" , "Oppose with effrontery" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
