1 Corinthians 11:14
"Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?"
The exception was for Nazarites, who were commanded to not cut their hair, among other things. (Samson was one, and lost his strength when he cut his hair because it was the last rule that he hadn't yet broken. He'd already broken the other Nazarite rules).

Men's hair will only grow so long (usually no longer than the shoulders) unless they don't have enough male hormones or too much female hormones. That's why the Bible said it was shameful for their hair to be long. It showed they weren't "real men." And most women don't find long hair in men attractive, either, for that same reason, whether they're aware of it or not.

I don't know that part of the Bible. But what part of "The Little Book" says that women have to be treated worse than dogs, and wrapped in veils from head to foot, and burned alive if they displease their husbands, or burn themselves alive out of anguish? What other part of that book says that you receive 72 virgins after leaving your wife behind and committing mass murder? This book is very confusing to me.

In Leviticus it says for men NOT to cut there hair if they do it is another one of those abominations like touching a woman on her period or gay people (suupposedly).

It is very clear in the New Testament about the hair of man and woman.
