Welcome to the gang ooblie.   Let me be the first to tell you to GO FOR IT.      Being in the military, buzz and shaved heads are nothing new and doing it now let's you get used to the new and improved you.  And do you really think that after 14 months deployment your wife isn't going to be delighted to have you home sly or not?

get out the shave creme and the Schick and go bald.  I started shaving my head in 83 wheh I was on active duty. Slick is the way to go in the field. Completely bald is the only haircut for a Soldier, Marine, or policeman.

Thank you for what you do!  Me and my family appreciate you very much.

I would say go for it!  Shave it off.  It probably won't look much different than it does now.  Besides that, after 14 months I don't think your wife cares WHAT you look like.  lol

Good luck and stay safe.

Shave it off man.  It won't look much different than it does now; but it is going to feel real different.  I bet you wife loves it.
