I see your point, but from my perspective it means little. There will only in history be x number of hairs on my head, but that doesn't make them worth anything.

You hairs lack the ability to be transfered quickly and globally and it wouldn't be hard to find hair of a similar color one could substitute for it.
Your hair can be easily counterfeited (it is prohibitively expensive to invalidate a fake). Your hair cannot be used as currency; bitcoin can.
