If humans evolved long hair as sun protection then why do so many adult men NOT have long hair? Do they not need sun protection?
Read “The Descent of Woman” by Elaine Morgan. Such a drastic mutation as continuously growing head hair in adult females is, by necessity, connected to procreation and child rearing.
Humans have the longest comparative child rearing lifespan of all animals. It requires drastic measures. Mothers and babies are key. Humans evolved in a marine environment during a critical period when land predators ran mothers and their infants into the surf. Mothers with upright gaits and long hair, along with swimming babies with strong hand grips, became requirements of human survival.
Fathers were unimportant.
“Humans evolved ...”
Nope.
Agreed. The only mammal? How about an easier answer...cause we're humans created by God.
Another View is that men, being the ‘protectors’, and needing to fight off other men from other tribal groups, long hair was a disadvantage and a problem.
Women then, being the procreators, would choose to mate with the men who were more victorious in the fights, in so doing they would pass along the male pattern baldness gene...........
horses don’t have manes? male lions don’t have manes?
Yes, they are manes, not head hair..................
Then why would women require long head hair?
I get the wolf man beard up my cheeks.
I just go to a proper old fashioned barber with a straight razor in the regular. It’s really the only solution. You need a second person to look at you to get your face balanced.
Because only humans charge such outrageous prices for haircuts!
Men, OTOH, find women with long tresses to be more attractive, especially red ones..............
“The absence of fur and abundance of sweat glands helped keep the body cool even after bouts of exercise, such as hunting animals.”
Not sure this will go over well with the ‘Vegan crowd’.

God only knows!...................
Joe Biden knows a lot about leg hair.
That nose hair seems to have activated for some reason.
Hair follicle is like a biological 3D printer. Based on the molecular program you feed it, it’ll print something tiny or something super long.
If so why do I keep finding mine in the shower on my pillow in the sink I feed it and noting happens.
They are trying to escape!.....................
Maybe I believe they reverse direction my eyebrows getting longer now nose and ear hair needless to say in other places.
For the combover.
