We are conditioned to think that hair styling is important and how it makes a cool fashion statement. But in olden times it was a different story. An interesting find revealed that long hair in men was actually related to consciousness or the sixth sense. Does that sound alarming? Lets delve a bit more into this topic.
During the Vietnam war, special forces in the war department had sent undercover experts to look for talented recruits among Native Americans, who were blessed with special supernatural and tracking abilities.
A couple of American Indians were selected and what happened after that is surprising. Once they were recruited, their natural skills and ability to access their sixth sense just disappeared. On conducting a test to find out what went wrong, the older native American recruits said that after undergoing military haircut they could no longer sense the enemy, they lost their intuition power and couldn’t access subtle extrasensory information.
So more native Indians were recruited and this time they were allowed to keep their hair long and on comparing performance of men with military haircut and ones with long hair, they found out that long-haired men were far better and skillful. The results stated that the Native trackers should be allowed to keep their hair long. A special thanks to Indian in the Machine for the truth on Native/Indians and long hair .
While reading about this I also realised that Sikhism requires men to keep their hair long and is considered a symbol of spirituality. One of the five physical symbols of faith for Sikhs is, “The Kesh (or hair) reminds a Khalsa to behave like the Guru’s. It is a mark of dedication and group consciousness, showing a Khalsa’s acceptance of God’s will.”
Long hair has long been a common element of many spiritual prophets such as Jesus, Moses, Buddha, Shiva, or the story of Samson and Delilah from the Bible, when Samson lost his strength with the loss of his hair.
Hair is an extension of the nervous system and it emits energy from the brain into the outer environment. Its an information highway reaching the brain, so when hair is cut, receiving and sending transmissions to and from the environment is hampered.
The 60′s were quite hairy and on a ending note, you may like the musical called Hair!

I can promise you my head does not have a cute shape so if something happened that I had to be bald I'd cover it up with a hat or something. I have seen other women with very nicely shaped heads but I'm not one of them.

...Stop Being Picky Baz.....Lol......
How would I know whether your mother's family was Roman or not? It doesn't matter to me one way or the other.

Spaghetti
Thank you for sharing, Eddie. I wouldn't mind eating that spaghetti hair right off of that precious little head.
OMG!
This is interesting and as long as we are sharing hair characteristics, here's mine; I am "follicle challenged" or in other words, bald as a cue ball. At least on top. It was gone by age thirty something. There is, however tiny little transparent and invisible hairs that can be felt with the hand or seen if looked at closely. I still have hair on the back and sides of my beautiful and well-shaped head. I haven't cut that except to trim a few ends every few years for over a decade yet it still barely touches my shoulders and just won't get any longer. A friend of mine who was a stylist once a long time ago told me that I had the finest hair he had ever seen. So fine it dissolves before reaching my shoulders.
I have very little hair on the rest of me too. Not much underarms, Only a few on my chest. Not much on arms or legs either. I could have a fairly substantial beard if I wanted, but I never did like it when I let it grow. I sported a respectable moustache in my 30's, but anymore, I only feel best with a clean shave. My beard is just not something I feel good in. After reading this, though, I may consider growing it to see if it improves my intuition. I can feel the air moving the tiny, invisible hairs on top and I lose a lot of heat through my head so I have to keep one of my many hats handy or I can become easily chilled. I have been bald so long that I can't imagine having full and thick hair and I don't think I would like it if I did. I actually like my lack of hair and I just wouldn't be the same if it was different. No offense intended here, but sometimes when I see a man with real thick hair, I almost feel like I may be a different species. I would not want to have that kind of "rug" on my head. The feeling of my comparatively thick beard like a rug on my face is uncomfortable to me which is unfortunate because I don't like the chore of shaving, but having that rug on my face is worse.
