Why would the Nazirite vow include no razor being used on one’s head?

Judges (Juges) 13:5 (ESV)

5 for behold, you shall conceive and bear a son. No razor shall come upon his head, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb, and he shall begin to save Israel from the hand of the Philistines.”

A Nazirite was one who was dedicated to the Lord for special service. Not cutting your hair was an outward sign of this: you could not put human hands to your hair to beautify it. It had to be the way it came straight from the Creator.
