Who may cut a part into the hair?

• A. Barbers without structural hair restrictions.
• B. Only Soldiers who have a texture of hair that does not part naturally.
• C. Only medical professionals.
• D. Any Soldier.

Answer: (B)

The rule being tested is how a hair part is handled under Army grooming standards. A part can be cut into the hair only when the soldier’s hair texture does not part naturally. This keeps appearance neat and within regulation for those who don’t have a natural part, while avoiding creating artificial part lines on hair that parts on its own. Barbers, medical professionals, or any soldier are not universally allowed to perform this unless the hair texture in question requires it, which is why the correct answer points to soldiers with a texture that does not part naturally.
