Question: Is it ok to add hair to a compost pile?
Yes.
I'm talking about dog hair, cat hair, and human hair.
Has anyone done it?
Yes
Does anyone have cites about it?
Only in books on composting - those books say that hair dressing asalons are
a good source.
The only problem with it is that it tends to mat together so you've got to
be a good compost turner. I'm not so tend to find chunks of uncomposted
hair that I have to throw back into the next batch.
