Most today are guided merely by fashion and desire in how they wear their hair – this includes men. To consider a hair style for reasons outside of yourself will seem foreign and archaic to most. For Christian men (subject of this article), being called to a life of service is the point. A calling that is to represent God, His authority, His designed and social structure – His lead is what a Christian man is to convey in all he does (Is 66:2) – including how he appears. His hair style is no exception (1 Cor 11:7), especially since we are given guidance.

Scripture guides us on length and reason for it. A man is to keep his hair short. (1 Cor 11:14) Short hair is to be an example to others as an outward sign that he is submitted to God’s authority. (Gen 1:27, 5:2) That he understands the authority structure set up by God and that he has willfully submitted to it. Deut 22:5) To wear long hair, knowingly or not, is a sign of rebellion to God and His way that they profess to believe. (Paul addresses hair length 1 Cor 11:2-15)
