Dying your hair when a female in the military?

I graduated Air Force basic training in 2009 and some of the girls in my flight who had their hair highlighted had to have it dyed, since it's supposed to be in air force regulations for hair standards. After she's done with basic training and goes on to tech school she can have high lights andlow-lightsts again as long as they look natural. But yeah in boot camp the military training instructors tend to be really strict with dress anappearancece. If she's at Air Force boot it's only eight weeks that she'll hate at first then things start to get better.

I spent years in the Army and colored my hair just about the entire time, but I have never heard of the Army making anyone color their hair.... with one exception. If the haircolor or style can be considered "faddish" or unnatural, they can direct you to correct it. There was a girl of Asian descent in one of my units who went blonde and the 1SG counseled her that it was not within standard. She was given a certain amount of time to fix it or face administrative consequences (Article 15). She changed it.

Highlights and lowlights might have been considered faddish and that's not allowed.

They're right...faddish and all. I'm just stuck on how she still has a cell phone... lol ;)

blondes are usually less common so they are handled exotically or like a novelty.

honestly, i dont think you should do some thing that drastic. get some honey blond highlights or something. because if an individual want platinum blonde hair, you are usually going to have to bleach the particular heck out of it.
