    Oh yeah.

    Oh, HECK yeah.

    *Fans self*


    The only thing hotter than a dude w/ a high and tight is a dude in a uniform w/ a high & tight.

    I loved it when my husband had a High and Delicious. Then he hit the fleet and was all...low-reg. :laugh:

    If you're in, I'd say ya...but if not...then...no.

    If you're going to get a true high and tight, don't leave it incredibly long on the top or it will look like a mini-mullet.

    I go for skin on the sides, high fade, with a 4 or 5 on the top... similar to a high and tight, but looks better IMO. Fits perfectly well into the uniform regs... not that you're concerned with those.

    ETA: A phrase I learned while getting a haircut out to sea.... the difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut is two weeks.

    High and tight should only refer to your butt, not your hairstyle.

    Yeah! Although I do live on a Marine Corps base, so that's pretty much what i'm used to seeing.

    Nay. IMO - it doesn't even look good on soldiers....

    If you like the look, go for it, but I'm one more vote for bald. Nothing sexier than that!

    High and Tight aka Ranger Cut or Marine Corps. MY hair was long as hell in the AF, which I got in trouble for LOL.

    2 thumbs up for the military cuts. I have been out for 9 years and I still have it. I tried growing it but it was just a freaking mess...

    I am interested in this topic. I like my hair short, easy to comb, looks neat. My wife hates it, wants me to grow it longer. I always get a hair cut with a number two on the side faded, and maybe an inch and a half to two inches on top.

    What's a hair cut? Thankfully, I haven't had to worry about hair style for 6 1/2 years.

    I just like the way it looks honestly, always have. I haven't ever been in the military, but I picked it up when I was in Army JROTC a while ago back in High School. Just always liked crew cuts and the high-tight look.

    If you really like it, go for it! I am sure you have no problem getting attention from the ladies :wink:
