Sat nam. I didn't know Sikhs put fashion before faith. If you care about being Sikh and keeping the hair on your body as Guru teaches, you let it show or cover it up, but you don't cut shave or bleach it. If you don't care, then go right ahead. Are you looking for approval from us for you to cut your hair? That wouldn't make us Sikh would it? Life takes courage to live. Choice is yours. Guru ang sang,
