I am not sure if you mean scalp hair on hair on skin elsewhere.

  There is no problem with rolling on hairy skin - such as the forearms, thigh chest etc. If you roll on the scalp to promote hair growth, roll in one direction - from the roots to the ends.

If the hairs are very long, you should roll in the direction the hairs are going. If you get entangled hairs in spite of that, use a dermastamp or use a trimmer beforehand.

Disinfecting the skin takes care of the hairs as well.
