My view is that it is okay for guys to have long hair. As long as the guy looks like a guy and is not easily mistaken for a woman.

Some people may quote the Apostle Paul saying that long hair on a man is a disgrace. But a lot of people overlook the fact that Paul was a Nazarite himself and therefore, had long hair too for a time.

A very good question. There are many instances in scripture that speak about hair ..whether cutting it, shaving it or leaving it long. Paul is the only one that I've seen
that admonishes men for having long hair, altho the question is...what is defined as long? Priests are told to neither shave their head nor let it go long, but to keep it trimmed. A nazarite vow is the only instance I see where a man is to have long hair, but you cut it after your vow is compelted. I suppose, it's a matter of what is the inner most voice telling you that you may be shushing? Ultimately, it is between you and Yah. If you are truly seeking an answer, it is found in scripture...it's just whether we want to hear it or not. My thought and prayers are with you on your journey to the answer for your question.

some guys look really good with long hair and some guys don't I think it gives a guy a bad boy feel to them sometimes

I am very pleased with the response. To date, all 16 voters voted in favor of guys having long hair. I wasn't expecting that in a Torah observant community like this, but it is a pleasant surprise.
