This is weird but I was just thinking about it. I have a mole on the back on my head that kinda sticks out. When they shave my head will they just like rip it off?lol What's gonna happen?!

It's pretty hard to shave those things off. It may or may not bleed a bit, but it'll probably stay attached.

lmao okay. I have a feeling that they aren't too light to the touch when they shave your head so I was just wondering. Looks like I'll just have to see when I get there. I'll probably be holding a paper towel on the back of my head for the first few hours :/

I have the same worry. I have one on the side of my head and I'm debating whether I should just see what happens or get my hair cut ahead of time so they can see it when they buzz my head

Anderson has a good idea. Go ahead and cut your hair close before you leave so 1 you may not need a cut or 2 if you do they'll see it.

I had the EXACT same idea! But I heard it's bad to shave your head before boot camp because it'll single me out... I'll just trim it or put like a sticker on it or something.
