Men seem to favor shorter styles; when they are on the move, for example, or in battle, they do not like their hair getting in the way. (He chuckles suddenly.) Ah once. Elros had a liking for the styles of Men and he was adamant about changing his hair to mimic them. Elrond thought it a mistake and said that if Elros followed through with it, he would cut his off too.

Needless to say, Elros did follow through and only one of the twins liked the outcome. (Poor Elrond.) Kano and I reassured your father it would grow back.
