[Avodah] long peyot

[Eli Turkel via Avodah]

In some circles it is common for men to keep long peyot (as an aside it has
become common also in some chardal circles)

The book Keren Zavit says he doesn't understand the custom. The problem is
not in long sidebruns but rather that the hair from under the ear rarely
grows long. The long "peyot" usually grow from hair above the  ear and so
has no connection to peyot and in fact come from part of the head where
there is no prohibition to shave
