If christians women as slaves were forced against their will to be shaved then they committed no sin they did nothing wrong just as the rape victim is not guilty.
OH, did you ever miss the point! I proved hair length is NOT salvational. Hair length is CULTURAL.

It was only FREE women in the Empire who could grow long hair. A female slave was recognized by her short cut hair, a bowl cut called the kepos. Slaves were abundant in the Empire -- at one time the ratio of slaves to free people was 1:1. Many slaves became Christians. If growing long hair were a requirement for salvation, how could a female slave have been saved?
