Human Hair — Detailed Guide
Hair as a crafting resource
Human Hair is a resource in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended, collected by cutting a human player's hair with 
Scissors. The item text is short: "A lock of human hair!"
What it replaces
The ARK Wiki describes it as a stand-in for Pelt and 
Wool: anything crafted with Pelt or Wool can use Human Hair instead, with the 
Lance as the one exception. It can also be mixed with Pelt and Wool in any amount when crafting an item.
Getting hair in each game
Scissors only yield hair once it has grown out. In ASA, the server setting HairGrowthSpeedMultiplier is 0 by default, which means hair does not grow and the item cannot be obtained in a default game. Server owners can set a value for it in Game.ini. Once that is done, applying any hairstyle cuts the hair and gives Human Hair.
Weight and stacking
A lock weighs 0.05 and stacks to 200, which puts a full stack at 10. Our records list it on 14 maps, including The Island, Scorched Earth, Lost Island and Fjordur.
