Joe Butterfield, a Marine spokesman at the Pentagon. Those regulations cover everything from hair length and styles to tattoo policies, facial hair standards for men, and makeup rules for women.<\/p>\n<p>Marine officials declined to comment on when the review is expected to be complete or what changes could result.
