You aren't running against your will. It's just as advantagous for you to hit the ropes and gain momentum for potential offense as it it for him to send you across the ring for the same reasons.

Pretty common spot right there.

Also some moves like the tombstone, you see the hair impacting the mat and subconciously you think its their actual head, guys with shor hair it sometimes is very obvious they don't hit. I don't think any of the reasons above apply as to why they have it though, or possibly they do i dunno, i cant see it as a style choice seeing as the vast majority had it.

Long hair hides your calls. Hard to see my lips move if both of our faces are coverd in hair.
