I'd call the stewardess and point it out so that she could deal with it. Otherwise, I'd tap on the seat-back to point it out to the offender.

Two pronged approach: Call the stewardess and let her know her hair is in your space. Been there, done that.

To be honest, the offender must know that her pony tail is hanging over the back of the chair.
Still, I'd call the stewardess. Otherwise, I'd be tempted to dip her pony tail into a drink, or some soup.

I'd tell her about it and if that did not work, call the flight attendant.

The offender is either rude or clueless or both. Yeah, let the flight attendant take care of it.
I love dealing with individuals like this face-to-face, and I wouldn't be nice about it.
I'd tell her just once, get your hair out of my space and keep it out, and if my words failed to register, I'd get the flight attendant involved.
Exactly! Then I’d flip her hair over on her side of the chair.

Get out my scissors.

Pretty rude isn't it, she reeks of having 'an air of entitlement' to do this, needs a good lesson on how to behave.
I'm with you on that, Mellow.
I'd tell her too, the hair seems to be going over the tray, so that's unacceptable. I would think she's say sorry and move it out of the way. I would call the attendant if there was an issue, but I prefer to just talk to people first.

I'd gently lay the hair back on the top of her seat.

Anyone suggesting they’d pull out their scissors would end up dealing with the authorities. No sharp items allowed.
@Dana, was this done to get a reaction from the person staring at the hair? I find anything that is done as a joke to rile up someone is extremely ignorant, especially if it’s done for hits.

My assistant told me it was a tik tok escapade Jules, I'll ask her later.
I wouldn't touch it.
The instant you touch it, the person would wing out on you, that's the mentality society wields today, it's not their fault, it would turn into it being all your fault, you'd be the ignorant and bad person... the aggressor.
Not worth it.
i would ask her to move it. if that didn't happen i'd be flinging it back over the chair at her. {makes mental note to bring a small pair of scissors for emergencies.
i have this hanging off my key chain... and it's TSA approved!

Doing what I choose to do is far better than confronting them. We can take the higher road if we choose. We are too quick to assign others motivation that they may or may not have. Age can bring wisdom, if we choose to follow that path.
