As far as I recall, you didn't do that at all, so good job.

Like Wesley Stevens notes, aceticism ran in the family, and there's a chance Jesus was part of that. Paul and the whole short hair deal came significantly later, and since Paul was likely of more urban extraction (and exposed more to the popular styles there) than Jesus, it stands to reason that these influences would be included in his teachings. Erm, what I mean to say is, look over there! *religion scholar run away!* Shortish, unless he was a Nazorite (a particular socio-political group at the time–I’m probably spelling it wrong, though), which some sources suggest Jesus was, in which case long hair and beard would have been the thing to wear.
