Shaving one's head/hair

[SoRoUsH]

Salam, 

Does any one know why shaving one's head is mustahab in Shia Islam but makrooh/haram in Sunni Islam?

Thanks.

Yes. I know it is mustahab in Shia Islam. My question is why is there a difference in ruling?

It was seen as the look of the khawarij.

Is that the only reason? There's nothing deeper, more spiritual, more meaningful?

Sunni jurists listed that as a reason for karaha, another reason was mutilation which is not well received even among sunnis.

Wait. So, since it's mustahab in Shia Islam, looking like khawarej wasn't an issue for our imams. Right?
