  I remember reading a research study conducted by the US Army during the mid to late 19th century involving various Native American scouts. They began the study by having the scouts do their job. The scouts would seemingly track subjects across terrain that would appear to be impossible, such as rocks and the like. Despite the incredible difficulty of such a feat, they managed to locate their prey.

  The Army then cut off their hair and asked them to perform the same feats. Sadly the subjects couldn't do such. After waiting several years for their hair to return to relative length, the Army had the same scouts do it again and they were back to locating their prey despite incredible challenges.

  The conclusion was that long hair apparently somehow aided them in their scouting.

  I'm glad I started to grow my hair again :) it just felt natural for me wanting to attain longer hair.

  Also, it reminds me a bit of fiber optics wiring into the head x). Seriously it feels like there is much more to it than just appearance.

  I also wonder why still today it's almost unacceptable for men to have long hair, why did the sterotype start; the shorter hair a man has, the better?

  Altough, I can't say I have gotten any much critique yet for growing my hair as a man. It feels that it have become much more acceptable by my younger generation since at least 20% of men in my age 18-25 have started to grow more than shoulder length hair.

  I seems beneficial enough, that the Hopi blue star prophecy authors can say with certainty "many of the white man will wear their hair long like my people." I have always felt long hair associated with greater wisdom, as well as strength, thanks to the Sampson story. And of course, working society generally insists you have short hair. Shampoo is also bad for your hair, and can lead to baldness and damaged hair. This is due to an ingredient used in nearly all of them. Prior to its use, people used homemade solutions, which you can still find for dandruf. They typically involve washing your hair with salt or vinegar.

    Sky it is not the looks that matter but the significance and value of keeping long hair.
    Ben may be good looking and handsome but every time he cuts his hair he looses his spiritual strength and other powers as explained in the article.

  Well Sir Ben-Arion let's see you with long hair in the near future.
  I have kept my hair long ...Singhs keep their hair long as they know the importance of long hair.
  
  Hare Krishnas shave their head ..so bold with a little turf at the back of the head ...THEY SHOULD REALLY KEEP LONG HAIR.
  Long hair also protects your head in case of knocks

    I have noticed music by many musicians lose enthusiastic color and vibe (and the musicians become less energetic or enthusiastic) when they cut their hair. Metallica, Led Zeppelin, and Eric Clapton are good examples of this.
