The Bible is very clear that Jesus’ head was wrapped separately from His body.

And no, He did not have long hair.

Seperate, as in on a shelf?

May the Angel removed the face mask before the resurrection?

Numbers 6:1-21 details the Nazirite vow, a special vow of dedication to God in ancient Israel.

Throughout the period of the vow, a Nazirite was not to cut their hair. This resulted in long hair being a visible sign of their dedication.

There is ample evidence many Jews in the first century followed this.

In Acts 21:23-26, the Apostle Paul takes part in a purification ritual related to the Nazirite vow. Paul sponsors several men who are under a vow and pays for their temple sacrifices, demonstrating that the practice was alive and well among early Christians and Jews in the first century.

“....head was wrapped separately from His body.”

Enter the equally contested Sudarium of Oviedo....

Wiki, like Kindergarten and Cliff notes, a good starting point.
