hair cut standard

[alamrcn]

Flat tops aren't bad I guess, they're a fad and often in style. 

Yeah, those 60-year fads... heh! Any and all of these hair cuts require routine maintenance. If you have the "what most cadet high-n-tight cuts look like" version, wait a week and it'll be ready for the "should look like" version.

I go back and forth with all of the above three... closest to the first one now. However, come August and our wing ES academy, it's going to be more the range of the other two. None of them look bad on any age of member - but like it was said, there is a certain melon shape that it doesn't work for.

  I think a good haircut for military and CAP folks is a clean taper (fade) off the ears and collar and enough hair on top to comb in a neat manner.

Sigh.

The hubris of youth.

Just wait a few more years, son, and look back at what you wrote.

Every morning, when I comb my hair, I look at what breaks off in the comb with mixed emotions.

It's grey.  But it's hair.

I guess mine qualifies as a crewcut.  It's pretty short, but it's not really a high 'n tight either.

In addition to no known health problems, my family's genes carry with them full heads of hair, regardless of age.  Except my grandmother, but she's 90.  At 90, you can have my hair.  I'll be celebrating if I make it past 35.

Is your mothers father bald? The gene believed to cause baldness is passed through maternal genetics.

Negative.  Well, he's dead now, so yes.  But he wasn't.

Stillamarine, thank you for your reply. I showed the reply to the ES officer and he bit his lip and apologized. 

[Grumpy]

All these problems with hair cuts.  Personally, I like mine.  The reverse Mohawk.

I think a shaved head is the right way to go. Not only is it easy to maintain and lasts long, but it's the most squared away cut out there.

^^ It looks good on me, but for some others, no- not really.
