If you check some churches, you may see guys plaiting their hair. You may notice such amongst the instrumentalists, drummers, bass guitar players etc. The question is, should a genuine Christian guy Plait his hair? To me, it is not a good appearance for a genuine Christian guy. Such appearance cannot be easily used to preach, and it may not allow sinners to be convinced to repent. 17 Likes 1 Share

That's a right peculiar take, and I must say I disagree with it, mate! To say that a "genuine" Christian shouldn't have their hair in a particular style seems a bit judgy, if you don't mind me sayin' so. As far as I can tell, there's nothin' in the Bible that says Christians can't have their hair in any particular way. The idea that a Christian's appearance should be a certain way to "preach" or "convince" others seems a bit backwards, if ya ask me. After all, the Bible says that "man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." (1 Samuel 16:7) The focus should be on the person's character and actions, not on how they choose to look, yeah? 43 Likes 2 Shares |

If Sampson, moses and elijah in the bible had dreds who will say otherwise, except a white man who needs to turn us away from who God truly is , any black man and holy man who is spiritually gifted with strength and ruggedity does not cut his hair, its a pact between him and his God and the physical strength of these men are nothing to contest with 37 Likes 1 Share |

Christians will say God looks at the heart not the body! Can a lady wear only G-string under micro skirt and short crop to church? No! Shebi Jesus dey look only heart not outside body! Plaiting hair is effeminate and only cuckold/LGBTQ guys would embrace it! And our culture frowns at it. 39 Likes 5 Shares |

The kind talk and questions you ask on this forum is very funny No one is really hitting the nail on the head Why can't you ask questions like: 1. How can a christian defend his or herself if terrorists attack  2. What do we do to better our lives in the face of this harsh economy reality 3. How do we identity and deal with corruption  4. How can you be a better citizen 5. What to do to stay honest even in business infact teach how to be a better person in your environment These are some of the problems in our immediate environment Many of these questions will make lives better Michael Jackson dey plait hair supposing he's still alive, who amongst you will not jump at him or take pictures with him if he comes to your church Samson in the bible self keep hair Hair shouldn't define someone's character, what God really want from us, we aren't doing!!! 44 Likes 5 Shares |

It's not in my place to give verdict. I personally don't like it and I won't do it, but, if any guy sees it as something he likes; then that is his business and choice. Who is a Christian?  3 Likes |

Nope The order is that women should adore her hair and even cover it (another discussion for another day). So plaiting your hair is wrong. 2 Likes |

benuejosh:The physical appearance does not always reflect the heart. The Bible also said that man looks at the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart. Outward appearances can be deceiving, misleading or influenced by many factors. For example, some people may dress modestly or wear religious symbols, but they may be hypocrites or criminals. Some people may have scars, tattoos or piercings, but they may be kind, generous or brave. Some people may have disabilities, illnesses or deformities, but they may be happy, hopeful or talented. You can't judge a book by its cover, mate. You have to look beyond the surface and get to know the person. Simple sense. 5 Likes |

Is too shameful sight that young male mimick girls in dressing,thereby diminishiing their manliness,bob risky started this rubbish, Despite telling youth by his name that What he does is risky,they still offer themselves as tools in devils chamber. Too shameful to see a male wear ear rings,plain hair like woman or even wear female accessories.  2 Likes |
