Church Fathers Opinion of Hair

Check out this blog that was recently posted. Here are some questions:

oldlandmark.wordpress.com

-- do these Church Fathers and early writers have any authority as evidence to what the 1st Century church believed?

-- while none of this addresses 1 Corinthians from an exegetical stand-point, can history itself help us interpret a passage (hermeneutics says it can).

-- what are your thoughts? are you curious about other early writers?

This writer doesn't stop at uncut hair (which I'm not sure where he gets from the writings), but goes on to talk about ornaments and head bands!

Before we fire back because we think it's ludicrous, please give some thoughtful feedback. Let's try to keep conversation specifically aimed at the points above (inevitably this will turn into another full-fledged hair thread, so I'm trying to preserve it as early as possible)

Thanks, everyone.
