I think it is pretty isolated to this one woman.

I don't know many Apostolic women ready to give up that uncut hair magical power and extra special uncut hair angel they get assigned!

We should probably back it up a bit here.

Firstly, these women are wearing thier hair all in very very similar styles (and by similar... almost the exact same), and are wearing the exact same dress pattern only in 4 or 5 different colors.

If I were in Texas and were concerned I would be mistaken for the polygamists, I wouldn't run out and cut my hair and buy a pair of jeans. That's just silly.

Paul said the temple prostitutes are wearing their hair long and free without the veil, so stick the veil on so you aren't identified with them.

I would simply wear my hair differently, or down... and I have yet to see any of our woman wearing pioneer type dresses, so I don't think that would even be an issue.

... welll then they should stop dressing that way.

I mean ... that's the argument these same preachers used for years about beards and mustaches, eh?

It was "associated" with the hippie movement.

I don't know many Apostolic women who ACTUALLY believe that.

I personally don't see this woman as being the least bit ashamed of her heritage... simply making sure she isn't mistaken for something else. I think she's being wise.

I don't think PO would appreciate you talking about her long flowing hair like that!
