My Papa too. My Mamma too had long hair till few years back. He happily accepted my GF for my marriage as she too is a long haired lady. I have seen my dad slowly run his fingers through her hair while they are watching tv sitting next to each other. Also whenever she bends in front of him, he makes it a point to touch her hair and help her get back in position. Once while playing cards, we all were having fun laughing and teasing each other, he grabbed Sona's hair and pulled it hard to move her out of the scene. All while laughing and playing and in good sense.
