Reply #19: They went from a kahki uniform that sometimes confused

[nadinbrzezinski]

them with the CHP, to the standard "LA Blue" blues, that are common all up and down the coast.

The only peiople who use fatigues, or battle gear are swat during well SWAT.

So if you look at LAPD, mostly the same uniform, with the same blue shade et al...

As to the hair cut, it has to be short for males, for the profesional look, (and harder to grap in hand to hand... scuffiles) and either short or tied up for females.

I was a medic for ten years and though I am female I wore my hair very short...

Oh and sunglasses are allowed during the day, and for oficers who wear contacts they are needed.

Hope this helps
