Male uniform guidelines: 

• Cap badge should be 1cm above the hem line of the beret. 
• Beret should be worn just 2cm above your eyebrow. 
• Hair at the front should not been seen above your eyebrow. At the back of your hair should not touch the collar.

• Buttons should be clean and polished.  (Do change to new ones if they are already corroded.) 
• The ends of the Buckle pin should be facing the right side so that excess belt material on the belt end will be on your left side. (If you have any problems understanding, please get an instructor to clarify.)  
• Belt end should be folded and tucked in the reverse direction when it is too long. (Ensure that is secure.) 
• Black socks should be worn. (No ankle socks!)  
• Boots should be clean and polished. (No need to be too shiny like a mirror, but be clean. Do change to a new pair of boots, if your boots are falling apart.)

• Beret should be worn just 2cm above your eyebrow. 
• Hair should be bun up with bun net (if you have long hair) and hair net. Do remember ALL hair accessories should be BLACK in COLOUR.

• Back View: There should be 2 well folded and distinguished lines at the back of your uniform. Be sure that the back of your uniform is well ironed!

Please be reminded that you are supposed to season your beret. Do not give excuses about not knowing how to season it because you can Google it. Also, boots should be clean with NO FOOTPRINTS, use a cloth to wipe it off.
