It's difficult to tell what's going on there but at least you got rid of the black bits.

Try the non-obvious things now...

Check your menus and see exactly what you have loaded.  It may be you have another copy of the hair loaded, which is partially obscuring things.  If not that, check to see the hair itself is positioned correctly.  You could have twisted some part of it in a weird way. 

Check the material settings for the hair,  and the figure.  Make sure you haven't accidentally loaded part of the hair texture and transmap onto the figure.  It doesn't look likely but check anyhow.

Something else...  Is the figure facing forward?  That is, hip rotation 0 along the Y axis?  Sometimes turning 180 degrees in Y makes clothes and hair twist in weird ways.  A degree either way usually solves it.

If all else fails, delete the hair from the scene and reload it onto your figure.

One thing I neglected to ask... are the hair and whatever clothes you have there actually made for this model, or have you scaled them to fit?  Sometimes scaling makes things go daft.
