LONG HAIR!
Men with long hair is something some Christians don't like at all. So I thought I'd have to cover this issue to get rid of all misconceptions concerning this by some so controversial issue.
Some even say that it's unbiblical to have long hair and refer to the verse <1 Corinthians 11:14>
BUT to understand this scripture we need to understand what the situation was like in Corinth. At this time Corinth was known for it's immorality and perversity and the men that were sexual perverted had long hair. Paul that wrote this letter didn't want the men in the church to be taken for perverted and that's why he wrote these words.
So this is NOT God's commandment to all people throughout all times, but Paul's SPECIAL ADVICE for the people in Corinth, at that time!
Another interesting thing is that the whores in Corinth had short hair or shaven heads and Paul didn't want the people in church to be taken for whores so that's why he told the females in church to not cut their hair off. <1 Corinthians 11:6> Again that was Paul's SPECIAL ADVICE for the women in Corinth in that time and NOT God's commandment to all Christians throughout all times.

It said sexually perverted men wore long hair? Good, because I am a sexually perverted guy, so I have another good reason to grow my hair.
...is more expressive. So for that reason alone I would say
Jesus was a Longhair!
Looks long to me.

Damn folks! Can't you scroll down a bit and read what has already been posted before you post it again?
And in answer to your question - no, he did not!
He was this fat balding guy with a big belly, dressed in robes and smiled a lot - especially if you rubbed his tummy.
Oh, wait a minute. Oops. Wrong diety. Sorry about that.
Nevermind...

Actually, there is this common misperception amongst the western world that Buddha is one deity, like God, when there are actually many (thousands of) Buddhas. When one achieves Nirvana (a state of emptiness and/or undesiring that is free from suffering) one is said to achieve Buddahood.
They won't — People are too apathetic!
....hmmmmmm...well, there's apathetic and then there's just
plain MIStaken!
It's BUDdha...budDHA...BUDDHA....for God's sake it's Buddha!
o, Lord, I'm so damned emotional...slap me...
My former neighbor Jesus Alegria Espinosa had long hair, but a dude named Jesus with whom I worked in a grocery store a few years ago (and whose last name I cannot remember) did not have long hair. At least not when I knew him. John Turturro's character Jesus in the Big Lebowski did not have long hair either--The Dude, of course, did.
I believe Jesus to be black. So I believe that if he did have long hair it was one heck of an afro.
Consulting an archaic book that claims people lived to be over 900 years old 1000's of years ago, and a book that claims the earth has four corners, when it comes to if long hair is okay is quite ridiculous.
