I know there's already a thread about Pentecostals, but I'm bumping this one again because I love the word "pentecôte".

Yep. I've been asked if I was Pentecostal because I prefer to wear skirts or dresses and have long hair. My mother in law belongs to a type of church that doesn't believe in women cutting their hair. Mine is long by choice and my husband prefers it. However, there is a part of me that won't cut it above bra strap length because I think my in-laws would be disappointed.

A few years ago I was primarily wearing skirts/dresses due to my love of interwar fashion. But I wore my hair in a bun every day so I never got asked that.
Now I wear my hair loose all the time but with ridiculously wide leg pants (think bifurcated skirts or beach pajamas). No one asks me now either. Now, if I'd combined the loose hair with the skirts, maybe. And I am Christian, but not Pentecostal or whatever other terms are under that umbrella.
No, but ... it might be all the ink
This might sound odd but I'm excited for people to think I'm part of some religious group because my hair is so long. I'll know I've made it haha!
I grew up in the pentecostal church and refused to grow long hair for years as a rebellious act. Now... my hair is nowhere the length of being accidentally thought of as religious so I live without fear haha!
