I guess because there's not a single solitary thing in the OT that prohibits it.

Maybe it has to do with having
no such customs of cutting their hair!!
Neither the churches of God.
I can remember my paternal
great grandmother. She was not a
Pentecostal nor apostolic, yet I never knew of her ever cutting her hair.
I visited an elderly Church of Christ couple in our city. He was a long-
time elder in the local C of Christ. They had a picture of two ladies that
I assumed was perhaps their mothers or grandmothers. You would have
thought they were old-time Pentecostals.
Our local Assemblies of God for many years, the ladies wore long hair and
did not wear makeup or pants.
My best friend from 6th grade to 12th, went to that church and never
wore pants, makeup but did wear her hair shoulder length. Her mother
wore long hair and looked like apostolic Pentecostal. I know others who
had the same lifestyle. I also remember when the pastor's wife got her
long hair cut and started going to the beauty show and started keeping
it short and permed. In my 69 yrs, I have seen many changes. My best
friend married the A of God pastor's only son. They are now members of
the large 140 yr. old Baptist church in our city. She wears heavy makeup,
pants most of the time, and keeps her hair short and permed and black.
She also wears lots of heavy jewelry.
This friend is the one who told me many years ago that they are saved
at repentance. But they go ahead and are baptized in the name of the
Father, Son and Holy Ghost. And that they seek to receive the Spirit,
if they want the Power.
But only repentance is necessary to be saved. Sounds like one of the two
groups that merged together in 1945. These locally here though call them-
selves Assemblies of God. They are hard against Oneness, Baptism in Jesus
Name. It is dangerous to resist TRUTH!
Wouldn't intentionally offend anyone but from what I have observed in
these many years of my life, it seems to me, many are being cheated out
of the most wonderful experience this side of heaven. If we don't receive
all that God meant for us to have, we are lacking! Our children and grand-
children will be lacking. I want mine to have the best God has for them,
and myself too.
Blessings,
