I'm just doing a number 2 on the top of my head and number 1 on the sides and shaving to the point that there's just a little stubble on my beard for my military look......(also my normal "civie" everday hair and beard style)
as for fitting inside my armor I have big forearms, quadriceps, and calfs so I need foam for comfort and to not have the forearm, thigh, and calf plates wiggling around.....
then when it comes to torso gear, well I'm okay-ish-ly fit....5'11'' and 214lbs and can bench 150 and lift 235 using both my hands for carrying heavy couches
