I was on the UPCI.org and I noticed that they had a photo contest going. I decided to browse a few of the submitted photo and I was shocked to find this among them. Is this a "new religion"?
This picture was taken at the Alabamas Ladies retreat. Sis Patty Twyman took down her hair to summon the power of the angels over the prayer requests. Many prayers were answered.

Pentecostal Herald, July 07, "Experiencing the Power of Freedom. pg.14
"An entire hour passed and Andrew would not go back to sleep. We could not figure this out because we thought we had him on a schedule. Finally Leslie suggessted that I turn off all the lights and just go to bed. Ten minutes later Andrew finally fell asleep and Leslie came to bed. When I asked her what she did to make him fall asleep she said that the Lord told her to put her hair over Andrews head and pray in the spirit. We believe that Leslie's obedience in placing her long hair (her glory and her covering) over our son was rewarded that night".

Those are the words of Juli Jasinski; a popular writer within our movement. They are lifted from page five of her book My Hair, My Glory under the Heading “Spiritual Findings in Pagan Significance".
Juli provides forty references scattered across seven pages of the book detailing the spiritual emphasis pagan religions place on the power of uncut hair. Here is an abridged sampling.

Quote:
"Hair has always been considered strong magic; witches casting an evil spell needed a piece of hair from their victims to make it truly efficacious.”
The Power of Magic Secrets and Mysteries Ancient and Modern
“hair has physical powers that act as a protection from evil entities of the etheric world; cutting of the hair was done in a ritual to discontinue this protection; it is symbolic of strength.”
The Donning International Encyclopedic Psychic Dictionary
“so widespread was the faith in the power of hair…that in Scotland it was ominous even to meet a woman with her hair uncovered…if a woman shook her hair at you, they believed anything could happen.”
Hair, Sex, Society and Symbolism
“St. Paul, Barbara Walker writes, greatly feared the ‘angels’ (spirits) that a woman could command by letting their hair flow loose, he insisted that women’s heads be covered in church lest the draw demons into the building.” In referring to 1 Corinthians 11:10, Walker interprets “because of the angels,” to mean the spirits were supposed to be attracted or controlled by unbound female hair.”

Jasinski goes on to say that “These are only forty of the many examples that show that hair holds great significance in the world of spiritualism, occultism, and paganism. I was surprised that almost all of these pagan references refer to Bible verses including the story of Samson and the verses in
1 Corinthians 11 concerning hair. This leads me to believe that the devil knows exactly what God intended for the woman and her hair. The devil, however, wanted to use it for his evil purposes but God wanted it to be used for our good.”
