If the Long Hair is a covering

I know it sound silly, but this is probably what they would argue. Again, they would play the obedience card. It's not a sin to cut your hair, its a sin to be disobedient.

But the point here is that it is supposed to be her covering (see veil) and she is to be covered when she prays...yet some tell her to PILE IT ALL UP on top of the head in church. If it is her glory too...why hide it?
