Hi Amber3205

When i first starting growing out my hair in 2005 it was ear length & shaved in the back. I honestly feel that I should have alot more length than I have now but it was one important thing that I wasnt doing. PROTECTIVE STYLES.....I didnt start PSing till about a year & a half ago and ever since then I have been seeing growth.

I dont know how you feel about protecte styles.....just styles that basically hide your hair but its very beneficial....if you dont mind wearing braids, weaves/wigs then this(protective styles) would be good for you

I know more ladies will come in with some other great advice

I say do the basics since you are deployed. Wash/condition(protein and moisture)/co-wash, Moisturize and seal and minimize heat. Once you get back stateside you can do more protective styling. The main thing you can do starting off though is stay out of it and handle it gently when detangling. No small combs, no heat and moisture goes a long way for most people starting out. Once you get more length you can bun, since that is within regulations and keeps your moisturized ends protected. Good luck and welcome aboard!
