AF Form 469 is not correct. The AF Form 469 is used to document what duty restrictions an AF member has due to a medical condition as defined by a medical provider but shaving waivers are explicitly not allowed to be documented on the AF Form 469. A shaving waiver must be documented on a seperate form and this waiver can only be written a medical provider. The Local Medical Treatment Facility is responsible for setting up their local policy. Here is the kicker. Even though a Doctor gives a member a shaving waiver this is only a "medical recommendation" and the members Unit Commander has the final approval authority. In addition the waiver can not be "permanent" and the patient must be evaluated hands on.

The army has way too few so they are more willing to work with people. you would have to get up to the weight in a year if you did get a waiver.

It is possible to obtain an entrance waiver, but not necessarily a quick and easy process. Your local Air Force recruiter would be the best source to give more detailed information on this (see related link).
YES! I have scoliosis-I am a graduate of the Air Force Academy, I am a professional pilot, and I have scoliosis. It requires a waiver and is a black and white issue-in other words, if your curve is less than X you are good, if not you are not and they will not give you the waiver.
