Not allowing a man's hair to grow too long also had something to do with this. Certain qalantars, or wandering Sufis used to do this.
I think Baha'u'llah is saying Baha'is shouldn't do these kinds of things to
make ourselves stick out. We should be distinctive in our character, not these
outward things.
What do you think about Afro's?:>)
