On the video, I think the hair looks acceptable in it's movement, although it doesn't seem like it should be moving quite as much. As mentioned, needs a bit more stiffness. The hop is ok, but the landing is too floaty. You need to add some more "gravity" effects to the landing. Even though it's a short hop, I would expect her head to move a little more on the landing, and for some reason, it just doesn't look solid. Shouldn't take more than a few more tweaks to some keyframes to get right.

Her skin. The skin looks good, but somewhat plastic. Not so much in the video, but that close-up still image you posted looks like a plastic doll rather than organic human. The lack of shading depth inside the nostrils, and around the eyes seem to give it an unrealistic quality. I also feel the eyes should have more intense specular properties. They don't look wet.
