Maybe keeping it on a high bun could help you break the habit. Also, every time you realize you're doing it tell yourself not to, I kinda managed to stop biting my lips this way, literally telling myself a few times (in my head) not to every time I realized I was doing it, I still do it some times but it has gotten better.

Well you already know it’s a bad habit, so now you can learn to control it. Some people don’t even know they have a habit until someone tells them

  Maybe tell yourself next time you reach for your hair that you’re making the person next to you really nervous, or get one of those squishy squeeze toys..

Sit on your hands

when you go to touch your hair, try and touch some place else or put hands in pockets or pick up a pen.

It’s really about replacing it with something else n then reducing that.

  Not really, it’s about finding something else for your hands, fingers to do.
  
  It can be anything really, something that works for you.
  
  Not something too extreme or you end up with one very visible habit replacing another

Count the number of times you touch your hair. The next day, make a goal to touch it twice as much. That way, it becomes a conscious act.

  Blessed Blade Belactus. A holy sword made from the Slends, representing the cross’s toughness. A near Demon who emerges from the shadows of darkness isn’t at all worthy of touching it. It’s a shame, you are misfortunate as you are single, since you came all the way to this remote dojo only to forfeit your lonely life

  I'm not sure. I haven't had that problem. But I've heard from smokers that are trying to quit, that it helps if they can put something else in their hand or in their mouth, that it helps.

  Not so long as to go down my back, which, by the way, is always unclothed. But yes, it touches my arms, which are always bare too.
