Hypothetical intellectual question here: If females are allowed to wear their hair a certain way and within certain regulations, shouldnt males be able to have those same hairstyles? totally hypothetical, is that not in violation of EO? Females are allowed to be have a (to standard) high and tight just as much as any male Soldier. What if a male Soldier wants to have his hair in a bun? LOL sounds crazy, but with all this equalilty argments going on these days, why not?

 

And no I would not grow my hair out and put it in a bun. I am sure there is some male somewhere that wants that "equal opportunity"

What do YOU think about haircuts while on active duty?  I know a lot of foriegn militarys have much less strict grooming standards.  I am just looking for opinions.

Also in regards to the haircut policy / doctrine I will have to question the safety of US Troops all around the world. The military preaches that you need to blend in with the civilian population in order to stay safer. Walking around with high and tights or military standard cuts does not allow for blending in. Soldiers across the world stick out like a sore thumb.

Join nearly 2 million former and current members of the US military, just like you.
