Phrase

What that mean" The hair comes out and The gloves Come off""

  

Top answer

Hi That's interesting - I'm not sure about the hair. "The gloves come off" refers to the sport of boxing, where people traditionally fight with padded gloves. If the gloves are taken off, that's a metaphorical way of saying that the fight has become serious or violent - it's no longer an art or sport that is being practised between two friends Dave
