Although I currently shave my head... I had long hair for a very long time... And I wouldn't trust them the ones without the metal ends usually bust open at the seam, and the ones with the metal end I would hate to sho e those sharp corners in the stuff sack with ny tarp...
But not saying it won't work, give it a shot and let us know...
