SholomParticipantWhat you may not realize is that they might have the same behavior amongst themselves. But since you’re not Jewish there’s no way you could know that. It’s a cultural thing. Attitudes considered normal behavior in one society, might be rude in another.

SholomParticipantThe bible tells us not to shave the edges of our temples, so we leave the hair to grow thereby showing our adherence to that commandment. [‘You shall not round off the edge of your scalp’ (Leviticus 19:27)]. Some scholars believe that rounding the edges was a pagan practice in Biblical times, so it was forbidden in order to show distance from paganism. Those curls are called payess. How they are worn–short, long, curled, tucked behind the ears, tied up under the hat, etc.–is not a matter of law but custom.
