The Air Force on Friday updated its regulations to formally allow airmen to ask for a waiver to wear religious apparel such as turbans or hijabs, or beards worn for religious reasons.
The update to AFI 36-2903, "Dress and personal appearance of Air Force personnel," allows airmen to request a waiver to wear religious apparel, as long as they are "neat and conservative" and present a professional and well-groomed appearance.
The new religious accommodation rules also cover unshorn beards and unshorn hair such as those worn by members of the Sikh faith under-turbans or patkas, and other indoor or outdoor head coverings.
