A few years ago, Enlisted added clothing customization and face customization. This suggestion is about face customization, so let’s get right to it.
As you know, if you don’t like a soldier’s default face, you can buy a new one using Appearance Change Orders. However, once you equip it, you notice that the original face is still sitting in the inventory as shown in this screenshot:

It makes it feel like he’s wearing a mask or like a man in a costume. On top of that, if you drag the soldier out of the squad or into the reserve, he goes right back to appearing with his original face instead of the new one.
My point is to make purchased faces from the appearance menu permanent actually replacing the soldier’s original head, removing the old one from the inventory, and making the purchased face his new default appearance. For example, this second screenshot shows a soldier who naturally has that face as his default, which is how it should look after changing it:

Of course, you could still buy multiple faces to apply to different soldiers or squads. If you later decide you don’t like the new face, you could always buy another one or apply a different face from your inventory and any unequipped purchased faces would stay in your inventory just in case.
Thank you for checking this suggestion and if you have any questions about this please comment.
