@EmbraceTheParlaeEra I dont think they would do anything because dandruff isn't harmful, but if it was like lice or something else then its a different story
Ok, I have a question on the haircuts. A friend of mine believes that the haircut was designed so service men would lose their indivuality and start considering themselves as a unit. I heard from my drill sergeant that before the haircut head lice was a problem so they just decided to shave everybody's head and be done with it. Who's right?
@darkwulf23 The original ORIGINAL beginnings of the military hair cut was started by the romans so the enemy couldn't grab their head, pull it back, and slit their throats.
@FIDsmoggydrizzle Not realy, they trying to save a buck. Never works though. The drill sergeants (instructors for marines) just chewed the guy out and still made him go through it.
That dude cut my hair like 10 years ago. I hated that asshole. Those haircuts are a lot rougher than the video shows. I always love having my haircut and look forward to it. For my time at boot camp I hated it. I saw people come out bleeding.
i already have a buzzed haircut, and i plan on being a marine next year. should i just let it grow a little before i go cuz my dad was in the navy and said the guys that shaved their head before bootcamp got the clippers shoved into their head really hard
@KyUuTiP yeah it's their job no matte what to run that buzzer across your head, whether theres hair there or not, So you might as well atleast have a thin layer of hair than no hair.
@thenacanoroc Just to be clear, I mean if someone got bad genes and went bald naturally at an early age, not shaved it before. In other words, the fact you have no hair already was out of your control. What do they tell you then?
@FinalLugiaGuardian If your genes were that bad to begin with, chances are they wouldn't let you in. I was in the Marines a while ago though, and their requirements change faster than the wind blows, so I don't know what their enlistment polices are presently.

You better get your hair cut medium short before you go in Boot Camp, if you have really long hair, they might mess with you and leave a bit on at the back of your head xD
@laurensmalter Has to be a real dick to pull something like that consitering that the drill instructors or drill sergeants would ride the recruits ass for that.
Great haircut video. Question----having never had a haircut shorter than a standard flattop, can any YouTube viewers (especially those who may have previously experienced the same as shown in this video) tell me what it feels like to have a clipper quickly peel all that hair off. How fast is it and how short is the clippers? Could the clippers get even closer? Does it hurt or feel different while clipper shearing? Are most guys nervous to watch it happen right before they get their heads buzzed?
@PAFlattop No it doesn't hurt. All you feel is the cold hard metal, hear the buzzing and feel small hair get all over your face. Sometimes a clammy hand then you are done. Nervous?? Of course, you are at MCRD and they want you so fucked up confused and spooked that you do what you can to minimize attention to yourself.
Whats kind of funny is if you stupid enough to get a Marine cut out in the world, it pisses you off if the barber gets aggressive with you. LOL
Word, I had relatively short hair so it made them into these little spines, between that, when you're life is shit, any little thing can make it worse.
i think its funny how we are all marines yet the only thing yall are bitching about from the entire 13 weeks that we were there was how mean the barbers were lol i personally thought the drill instructors were bigger bullies then the barbers. so quit complaining. we signed the papers knowing how it was gonna be. suck it up!! haha
@darrylhaynes when you are a recruit at boot camp, you have to say "yes sir", "no sir" to everybody, it doesnt matter if they are Marines or civilians.
Does anyone remember that guy from the warehouse at MCRD SD in charge of getting our boots and cammies?? talk about the biggest asshole on the face of the earth. Trying to act like DI. Fucking prick
Yes, the greatest assholes are the two civilians working at the uniform warehouse. I was lucky that one of the Marines who works there knows me so she and the other Marines treated me with respect, while my fellow recruits were treated like shit.
HAHa i agree so much this dude was a douche all 2 months he cut my hair.. for all you that are gonna say wernt you there 3 months... yes but in camp pendelton it was somemean bitch and riped my god damn head open lol
wow....the female barberette looks as tough as her male colleague and i love the speed the clippers are being run over the heads, i have alot to learn !....
DAMN!!!! That guy is still there?!?!? He was there back in 95. That dude and another guy were assholes... He had a big ass gold chain back then. ahhh, i remember it like it was yesterday.
I have no idea, I was told by a former Drill Instructor that its part of boot camp. Everyone treats you like crap to keep your spirits down, since boot camp was just a big mind fuck.
you're absolutley corrrect. The entire atmosphere is made that way. It helps the new recruit get used to being yelled at, keeping their mind clear in a stressful situation. It's called "manufactured stress" If you can't handle people yelling at you, how can you possibly ever handle being in a combat situation when the shit has hit the fan and bullets are flying? It's definitley not for everybody, They break you down as an individual and then build you up to be part of a team.
Yea that was what the former DI had told me, cause everyone else was wondering why all the Civilians and Navy Med staff were such a-holes to us.
Yeah in my platoon we had 2 guys drop for mental stress in the first week, a few more later on in the cycle. It defeintly sucked, but not really that bad looking back on it.
They do treat you like Crap but its all about Training and Discipline. In House (Squad Bay) your Senior along with your Green Belts will put pain in your Body and teach you Marine Corps Values when you're outside doing your Daily Schedule with your Series or at times the entire Company you want to Show your Platoon Off and you want to make your Senior DI proud aka look good because that show that their Training you is paying off and when you do that Senior will take care of you and motivated you
Wow that dude is still there.. he didnt cut my hair but remember him. They must do pretty good in one night because back in 94 we each had to give $5 for the cut. What are they charging now?
I don't know if it was the same guy, but when I got my hair cut at Edson Range, I was unintentionally slouching in the chair and the fat barber coped an attitude. I wanted to tell him to fuck off but I knew I'd get killed for it.
Him and all the old guys couldn't cut hair for shit! i remember they left a buddy of mine with like a Mohawk when it came time to get our high and tides in 3rd phase!
He tries to come off as some northeastern italian tough guy but he's really just a jerk. I mean, he's a total loser. How much talent does it take to shave a recruit's head? If you can mow a lawn, you can put clippers up to a scared 19 year old kid's head and peel him like onion in 25 seconds.
@mhzUSMC I went to Marine Military Academy which wasn't EXACTLY the same but very similar in the 70's. Our barbers on the first day weren't the friendliest people either. I've been around long enough to know about the "shock value" of your first few hours in MCRD and the reason for it. Still, this guy could do the haircut without being friendly and without trying to act like some "DI wannabe". He acts more like some sadistic prison guard welcoming you to Auschwitz.
@gogorat1318 Of course it's an act! A USMC DI is, by definition, one of the world's best actors. And the barbers "act" like tough guys. But that silly barber probably never served in Vietnam or Iraq so he has no bidness acting that way. He can easily say, like the barbers did when I got a military haircut, "Next!"
@WilliamRowlett I thought the corps used to cut recruits hair in-house. Now, it appears as though they have contracted some civilian barber to do that work.
I could watch USMC recruit training videos all day.Amazing.. How do you guys with authentic (unstaged) videos get them? Our 17 yr old son is @ Parris Island right now... thank you again & God bless
Ha ha! That Barber was there when I was there. He saw I had a Dallas Cowboys shirton and Said he was a Buffalo fan and was really going to enjoy shaving my head!
The answer is easy. The Marines don't disrespect the uniform by wearing battle dress into public unless on duty. The Marine dress uniforms are for public wear both on and off duty.
hell ya! you see fucking soldiers walking around with their uniforms in public. Hell, it could be a sunday and their just picking up some damn mcdonalds and they'll be in uniform
Are you saying Army is week? That branch is stronger in number and was the first branch made. Marines are trained more elite, but Army has everything to back them up.
Everything except one thing and that is fixed wing aircraft. The Army relies on the Air Force for jet fighter support while the USMC does not. The USMC has its own jet fighters. The USMC is the ONLY branch that can travel as a unit while being completely combat ready. That is what makes the USMC, the USMC.
Hey. If you were to compare a Infantry Marine and a Infantry soldier, they both have equal values. BUT, if you were to compare Marine POG and Army POG the Marine would win. Marines and Army have VERY similar Infantry. But the Army is more equipped. Good luck with the Marines.
@Videos4USArmy no they dont Marine grunts are more trained and can survive in any type of environment but the Army are treated worse and some soldiers are even used as bait while the Marine grunts are just placed in the frontlines with shittier equipment
No shower that night. No sleep either. You're up from 4:00 that morning at MEPS, you get to PI after dark, and you're up until 9:00 or 10:00 the next night doing in processing, shots, dental, uniforms etc.
That's right, I am a smart ass. Thanks for the props! This dude doesn't wear a uniform. He may have never even served. He has no right to act like a dick to them. They're going to get their asses kicked for the next 12 weeks. 3 minutes of not getting treated like shit by a barber aint gonna make a difference over the course of 12 weeks. BTW, as a graduate of both boot camp, and later OCS, I know the how military indoc programs work. And the barber being a dick was a joke to me.
which ocs were u sir? i wanna be an officer terribly and i wanna know how it goes down. like its been my dream to be one since i was young, im a pfc in the marines, can u also help me find ways to become an officer?
Lol, there are no "sirs" on youtube, but I appreciate the respect the Marines show. You guys are a cut above the rest. I'm Navy. Do you have your college degree? That's the first step. Make sure you're a high performer, and apply with the help of your Education Service Officer.
lol will sir im a marine 24/7 and i will respect those who r appointed above me(not to sound motivated lol) um... no sir i dont have a college degree, is that the only way? would it be hard for me to use my GI bill or is it to early for me? will it help if i do some MCIs? thank u sir
You can't get commissioned unless you have your degree. The Navy has a program called "Seaman to Admiral" that sends enlisted men to college to get their degree, and then commissions them. Great program. I'm sure the Corp has something similar. All branches offer some sort of enlisted commissioning program. You really need to speak to your Education Services Officer, or the O's in your platoon for mentorship. It's never too early to use the GI Bill.
The barber is being a dick. If he doesn't like shaving heads all day, go back to school and get a better job. It's his chance to act like a bad ass, because under any other circumstances, he's just a barber. Maybe he'll run into one of these guys on the street after they're bad ass marines and he'll get his.

Still, this guy could do the haircut without being friendly and without trying to act like some "DI wannabe". He acts more like some sadistic prison guard welcoming you to Auschwitz.

@WilliamRowlett It is part of his job to do that even though he is a civilian.

@WilliamRowlett This was an act. they get told to act tough. the bootcamp is pretty much trying to give u a nervous breakdown in every direction.
gogorat1318 1 year ago
@gogorat1318 Of course it's an act! A USMC DI is, by definition, one of the world's best actors. And the barbers "act" like tough guys. But that silly barber probably never served in Vietnam or Iraq so he has no bidness acting that way. He can easily say, like the barbers did when I got a military haircut, "Next!"

@WilliamRowlett I thought the corps used to cut recruits hair in-house. Now, it appears as though they have contracted some civilian barber to do that work.

aww why in the hell not?
how come army guys can wear their
combat uniform anywhere and not
the marines?
cHiWiLLiE 2 years ago
I don't know why the army can and marines cannot. The best answer I can come up with is MARPAT is not a leave and liberty uniform.
GravyHero 2 years ago
fuck that sucks ass but oh well
cHiWiLLiE 2 years ago
The answer is easy. The Marines don't disrespect the uniform by wearing battle dress into public unless on duty. The Marine dress uniforms are for public wear both on and off duty.
That is why Marines are Marines.

Are you saying Army is week? That branch is stronger in number and was the first branch made. Marines are trained more elite, but Army has everything to back them up.
treasuredroperX 2 years ago
Everything except one thing and that is fixed wing aircraft. The Army relies on the Air Force for jet fighter support while the USMC does not. The USMC has its own jet fighters. The USMC is the ONLY branch that can travel as a unit while being completely combat ready. That is what makes the USMC, the USMC.

Hey. If you were to compare a Infantry Marine and a Infantry soldier, they both have equal values. BUT, if you were to compare Marine POG and Army POG the Marine would win. Marines and Army have VERY similar Infantry. But the Army is more equipped. Good luck with the Marines.

@Videos4USArmy no they dont Marine grunts are more trained and can survive in any type of environment but the Army are treated worse and some soldiers are even used as bait while the Marine grunts are just placed in the frontlines with shittier equipment

becuz of the haircut?
or do they go to sleep with all those hairs on them?

We hit the sack at about 10 I believe, and up at 5.
This is the first day of bootcamp, they dont shower or sleep for 3 days.
yonder101 2 years ago
No shower that night. No sleep either. You're up from 4:00 that morning at MEPS, you get to PI after dark, and you're up until 9:00 or 10:00 the next night doing in processing, shots, dental, uniforms etc.
drivebytruckerz 2 years ago 2
damn so u go to sleep with the pokey hairs from the haircut?
cHiWiLLiE 2 years ago
That's right, I am a smart ass. Thanks for the props! This dude doesn't wear a uniform. He may have never even served. He has no right to act like a dick to them. They're going to get their asses kicked for the next 12 weeks. 3 minutes of not getting treated like shit by a barber aint gonna make a difference over the course of 12 weeks. BTW, as a graduate of both boot camp, and later OCS, I know the how military indoc programs work. And the barber being a dick was a joke to me.

which ocs were u sir? i wanna be an officer terribly and i wanna know how it goes down. like its been my dream to be one since i was young, im a pfc in the marines, can u also help me find ways to become an officer?
jimmyjam9014 2 years ago
Lol, there are no "sirs" on youtube, but I appreciate the respect the Marines show. You guys are a cut above the rest. I'm Navy. Do you have your college degree? That's the first step. Make sure you're a high performer, and apply with the help of your Education Service Officer.
falconflyer34 2 years ago
lol will sir im a marine 24/7 and i will respect those who r appointed above me(not to sound motivated lol) um... no sir i dont have a college degree, is that the only way? would it be hard for me to use my GI bill or is it to early for me? will it help if i do some MCIs? thank u sir
jimmyjam9014 2 years ago
You can't get commissioned unless you have your degree. The Navy has a program called "Seaman to Admiral" that sends enlisted men to college to get their degree, and then commissions them. Great program. I'm sure the Corp has something similar. All branches offer some sort of enlisted commissioning program. You really need to speak to your Education Services Officer, or the O's in your platoon for mentorship. It's never too early to use the GI Bill.
falconflyer34 2 years ago
The barber is being a dick. If he doesn't like shaving heads all day, go back to school and get a better job. It's his chance to act like a bad ass, because under any other circumstances, he's just a barber. Maybe he'll run into one of these guys on the street after they're bad ass marines and he'll get his.
falconflyer34 2 years ago
i thought they wouldve been nicer since they were civilians but then i realized if my job was just shaving heads all day id probably be a prick too.
i was just happy that my d.i.'s werent yelling at me and i got to sit down.
