Air Force to Allow Scalp Tattoos and Morale Patches as Part of Raft of Changes to Appearance Rules
Military.com | By Stephen Losey
The Air Force said Tuesday it will allow airmen to wear morale patches on certain days, put hands in their pockets, and to tattoo their scalps as part of an upcoming revision to dress and appearance standards.
The changes, as well as several others, are expected to take effect in early October when the service plans to release an update to Instruction 36-2903, Dress and Appearance of Air Force Personnel.
The Air Force said in a press release that it made the changes -- more than 30 recommendations in all -- based on feedback from airmen as part of the 2020 Uniform Board, as well as testing and reviews.
