  • In this video I'm going to explain what haircuts are allowed and how to ask for the right haircut in the Air Force, the military or just in general. I'll go in to depth about the different types of fades, and also cover different styles like the quiff, pompadour, comb over and more so that you don't get in trouble in accordance with AFI 36-2903.
    I use a bunch of different clippers to cut my own hair at home, but here's my go to set up
    I use the self cut system to cut my hair and it changed the game
    Self Cut System with LED - amzn.to/3Bcrvic
    Self Cut System without LED - amzn.to/3VTklY5
    Wahl Seniors cordless - amzn.to/3XXwJIt
    Wahl Seniors with cord - amzn.to/3iGhJP6
    Gamma Italia blade - amzn.to/3FtzU3m
    Andis T-Trimmer - amzn.to/3utdZ6c
    For all my peoples who are actually interested in joining the Air Force, this playlist will help get you started. Good luck 🙌🏽 • Joining the Air Force ...

    I hate to admit it, but it always better when a black man gives advice on hair. Why? Because our hair is always seen as unprofessional unless it involves waves and we tend to understand all hairstyles instead of only straight hair like majority of barbers who only cut straight hair.

      You’d have to get a shaving waiver. These are obtained for people who gets shaving irritation. If you got a shaving waiver, you’d be able to grow a beard (no longer than a 1/4 inch mostly). If you’re in the reserve, you can grow one when you’re not working your one weekend a month, but you’d have to shave when at drill. Unless of course you have the shaving waiver.

      So you can get 2.5 inches of bulk, and the reg says “Hair will not protrude under the front band of headgear”. So you have keep that in mind if you decide to have fringe.

      The fades are the same across the board. The styles on top are different. I didn’t go into black haircut styles because we have so many different names for the same haircut. So as long as you stay within 2.5 inches of bulk on top, you’re good. I gave a lot of examples at the end of this video with black men haircuts. All of those are within regs.
