Make woman cut their hair shorter if they serve in: space force, air force, military, and navy.
Like seriously in the naked line of war could you imagine " wait boys i have to put my hair up, sitting in a fox hole hold up let me fix my makeup 
" jokes aside the hairs gotta go it’s not a civil right like for real hair gets in the way of performance.

That would be a silly thing to mandate. I doubt very much that women in the middle of war would be concerned about makeup or hair. They would be concerned with staying alive.

Length and style of hair is already mandated in each branch accordingly. Its enforced as the “Grooming standard” and speaks more to professionalism than practicality. Ridiculous suggestion over all.

that was joke…
i was more of worried about hair knotting and catching, i have long hair i don;t think i could keep it as tame as it ought to be, men can’t even where long hair but woman can. I think that’s ridiculous.
woman don’t have to cut their hair in all branches from what i’ve seen. They need army cuts for hygiene and mute safety issues in comabat that’s all.
TLDR- 1.hair is low on the list of concern for hygiene items
2.These are adults
3. The grooming standard is actually moving in the other direction
4. Anecdotally ive served forward with few if any amenities and along side of women, the way you speak on it leads me to believe that you lack any particular frame of reference to speak on the subject beyond it being a personal issue.
Summary
ve typed a few professional things out but im just
gonna be real with you, i served as a Marine, i did a few tours, most of them were extremely forward, all of them included Female engagement teams at some point. While its true females have different hygiene needs than males (and its addressed accordingly), the least of concern is length of hair. Frankly when you go a couple of month’s with out a shower and youre doing the best you can with baby wipes, length of hair falls pretty low on the list of concern. Anywho, these men and women are adults and are expected to maintain the prescribed grooming standard which in turn is enforced by their leadership. The maintenance of these policie are crucial to combat readiness so ita taken seriously. However, to your dismay(probably), the policy is starting to trend in the oposite direction. A lot of men are now able to grow beards and longer hair with religious exemptions.

i am fine with religous exemption but short hair and long hair for men is trash policy in armed forces.
