男の人は長い髪をしています? Is this the sentence?
lol, literally : the guy is doing long hair?? I am not sure lol

Maybe it's this suru (刷る) and not the one that means "to do". If I'm not mistaken, this 刷る means "to shave". So maybe the sentence is reading, "That guy is shaving long hair."

i think it means
(that) man has long hair
or

Bingo.

Without any context (and only in romaji) it is hard to be accurate, but could be "Men wear their hair long" or something like that.

A bit of a strange first post, eh? =P Welcome to the forum! ^_^ Unfortunatly, I cannot add my two cents, as I am a foolish american with little grasp of languages >_<. Remember that you must try to keep yourself from the "strictly business" mindset. Make some friends while you get the information you want :vsign:

Hmmm...Sorry. I have a habit of spewing random advice at people xD

Wow, I totally misread. You're right. I was thinking "soru", not "suru". I'm sorry for the wrong information.
