Does this mean we can’t have an undercut?

[@SteadySteppin]

These are all either straight or processed hair.

How long can the French braid be if not in service uniform but worn in working uniform?

Former (male) Midshipman here.
This is absolutely ridiculous. Some of these "styles" if worn by a Submariner would result in the need for a "GI Shower". Can male Midshipmen have pony tails, buns, etc?

Is there a similar video for male grooming standards? If so, it’s probably 15 seconds long. 😀

Of course they need different rules for women; they are not the same as men and must be treated more gently and with more privileges.
