I understand the reasons for wanting to try and separate mini doll hair from standard minifig hair but with so many crossovers particularly with the increasing number of Male dolls using standard minifig hair I think this method starts to become unviable. For instance both these hair pieces are under Doll Hair when they are both equally suitable for standard minifigs and so how is the correct category for them being determined?   *  2631 Mini Doll, Hair Short Spiked, Swept Up in Front Parts: Mini Doll, Hair   *  2646 Mini Doll, Hair Friends Short with Curls and Pompadour Parts: Mini Doll, Hair My suggestion would be to consider removing the 'Doll Hair' category and replacing it with a category called 'Hair with Pin Hole' as that way you still get to separate a good portion of the doll hair from standard hair whilst giving some much needed clarity. Obviously it will mean some traditional minifig hair such as Leia/Queen ending up among the doll pin hole hair but I think its a small price to pay given it will enable more clarity as to where a hair design belongs and where to look
