    Styling reqiurements men.

    Neatly groomed for males is defined as:

    Hair must be evenly cut,clean and brushed so it stays in place.

    No volume or bulk that distorts the beret or helmet.

    None of the following:

    Long fringes.

    Quiff styles that sit high and interfere with headdress.

    Messy curls spilling out beneath the beret.

    Undercuts with excessive top length unless it can be secured flat and back.

    Sharp patterns,shaved lines,or sculpted shapes.

    Think  - Natural,Controlled,Low Profile hair.

    Styling requirements for women.

    Neatly groomed for females defined as:

    No messy buns.

    No oversized buns caused by hair donuts that pervent the proper wearing and fit of miliarty headdress.

    No multiple decorative braids.

    No strands or curls deliberately left to hang at the front.

    Think - Tidy,Secure,Controlled - nothing loose,Nothing excessive.
