Guys get their heads shaved for BCT, but can have short-to-moderate hair after Basic. Girls will need to have a shorter style or be able to put it up.

This is from the AFA's website.

" BCT is the transition from civilian to military life. Part of that transition is the uniformity of hair standards for the basic cadets. The rigors of BCT put great demands on personal hygiene. The time allocated for personal hygiene needs to be maximized and short hair helps. During the fall and spring semesters, hair is cut and styled in the cadet barbershops for men and the cadet beauty shop for women. Since the typical female in-processing haircut takes more than 15 minutes to accomplish, you should consider having your hair cut short and styled prior to your arrival at the Academy. After BCT female cadets are allowed to wear hair a little longer."

Hope that helps!
