I was born into the world for 26 years, and raised as a Roman Catholic and I thought cutting hair is okay. I am now associated with the Apostolics and baptized in Jesus name for 2 years now. But as I walk with God, suddenly the worldy beauty of cutting the hair is no longer beautiful for me. I keep looking at the end of women's hair. You see it didn't matter how LONG the hair was if the ends were trimmed. I don't feel anything about those trimmed hair no matter how long they are. But I felt something so strong whenever I see a woman doesn't cut her hair as her submission to God. And I should say this is what the Bible says GLORY. This is what is glorious in the sight of the LORD.
There was this Apostolic group and there's an intriguing discussion of this picture as you can see, a Filipina Apostolic woman with uncut hair. It has more than 200 comments! Curious as I was, I backread, another revelation from God came to me. And it is a statement but it has a lots of GOD's wisdom into it.
MEN should cut their hair because this is what God's want.
Because even people would frown to see a man if they see him with a long hair.
So MEN ought to cut his hair. And this is pleasing in the sight of the LORD.
But why should a WOMAN cut her HAIR???????
IS SHE A MAN?!!!!
We must also look at the history of the women in Corinth in that time. Corinth prostitutes were cutting their hair but God's women are not and that's a distinction between a holy woman and a unholy woman. But when a Corinth prostitute turned to God, she covers her cut hair with veil to tell the people in Corinth that "I am no longer a prostitute!" She will wait until her hair will be LONG which is UNCUT and then when it is already long, she will remove the veil to show the world and to God her glory. I heard their history from Rev. Lee Stoneking's preaching entitled "The Order of Creation" video.

"However, I want you to realize that Christ has authority over every man, a husband has authority over his wife, and God has authority over Christ. Every man who covers his head when he prays or speaks what God has revealed dishonors the one who has authority over him. Every woman who prays or speaks what God has revealed and has her head uncovered while she speaks dishonors the one who has authority over her. She is like the woman who has her head shaved. So if a woman doesn’t cover her head, she should cut off her hair. If it’s a disgrace for a woman to cut off her hair or shave her head, she should cover her head. A man should not cover his head. He is God’s image and glory. The woman, however, is man’s glory. Clearly, man wasn’t made from woman but woman from man. Man wasn’t created for woman but woman for man. Therefore, a woman should wear something on her head to show she is under someone’s authority, out of respect for the angels.
Yet, as believers in the Lord, women couldn’t exist without men and men couldn’t exist without women. As a woman came into existence from a man, so men come into existence by women, but everything comes from God.
Judge your own situation. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? Doesn’t nature itself teach you that it is disgraceful for a man to have long hair? Doesn’t it teach you that it is a woman’s pride to wear her hair long? Her hair is given to her in place of a covering. If anyone wants to argue about this they can’t, because we don’t have any custom like this—nor do any of the churches of God." -1 Corinthians 11:3-16(GW)

Another revelation: Some people, believers and unbelievers says, uncutting your hair is just LEGALISTIC OR A CUSTOM! But as you can see and feel, even NATURE SPEAKS ITSELF! People frowned to see MEN who has LONG HAIR. And people see a man out of WOMAN with her SHORT HAIR. Oh I see a lot of worldly aspiring models that are WOMEN, who cried a lot when their locks of hair were cut so short. From long hair to short hair, they felt so ugly in it. What about those women in the world, Kaycee Concepcion (a Filipina actress) for an example, after her broke up with Piolo Pascual (a Filipino actor), she cut her hair and colored it in deep red!!! And me as I was from the world, it is true! Whenever a woman broke up with her boyfriend, she weep so hard but after that she will cut her hair. And will be transformed! She will be fiercer than ever. She will change her looks. She will change the way she dress. That's because the REBELLIOUS SPIRIT has taken over her! Do you have that kind of spirit within you?
So it is not legalistic or a custom my friend. It is nature that speaks and GOD is teaching us: WOMAN SHOULD HAVE A LONG, UNCUT HAIR!
