Character Description: Yura of the Hair
Yura of the hair appears in episode 3 and 4- "Down the Rabbit Hole and Back Again" and "Yura of the Demon Hair". She is the third villain that Kagome and InuYasha come across (don't forget about the Demon Crow, who was the second). She uses hair like puppet strings to control the women of Kaede's village in an attempt to get Shikon Jewel shards. She lives in a giant hair ball with thousands of skulls. She can be physically injured but will feel no pain, and she can use hair to heal herself.
Yura of the hair, in addition to being able to control hair, has a sword, Crimson Mist, and has hid her soul in her favorite weapon, her comb. She is dead-set on removing InuYasha's "beautiful silver hair" from his head...and his head with it, as she usually beheads people with her hair to get theirs!
Yura is killed by Kagome, who destroyed the red skull which held the comb where Yura's soul was.
