So I was looking through some stuff on the Pathfinder site, and found the "White-Haired Witch" http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/witch/archetypes/paizo---witch-archetypes/white-haired-witch Now this immediately made me think of every instance of hair being used as a weapon in Fantasy and the like.

Rapunzel in Tangled
Kumadori in One Piece
That one lady in the Forbidden Kingdom
Vidalus Taka and Flare Corona in Fairy Tail
And any others that I don't know of and may have missed.

Now it's really cool, right up until 8th level. And yes while it may be nice to take Witch all the way to lv 20, it'd only be doing so to get the 30ft hair. So I was thinking that for this idea maybe a prestige class leaning towards the new and improved Eldritch Knight which an 8th level Witch can qualify for.
So beyond the Improved Natural Attack to make the Hair 1d6 damage and one level of any Melee class. What other feats should be taken.

Also any knowledge of other hair related spells/feats etc. Would be of good knowledge as well (especially any to make it longer than the 10ft it will be)

Here's a thread on hair feats (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49033) from several years ago. The silliness quotient is extreme.

Thank You, and Excellent. I hate when things get serious. I mean, Why so serious.

There was a PrC and skill tricks based upon beards that came up last year... Trying to remember its name. I do recall it heavily referenced the idea of the bearded warrior.

You could base a braid spell, more or less, on the following power.
You could also throw in a little levitation/flight for the braid itself if you like.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Glorytongue
Psychometabolism (Str)
Level: Psion 1
Display: Ma
Manifestation Time: 1 action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 round/level (D)
Power Points: 1

You gain the ability to stretch your tongue great distances and manipulate it as if it were a true limb.

The tongue is treated as a Diminutive construct with 1/2 HD, hit points equal to half your maximum hit points, AC 13 (+4 size, -1 Dex), Strength 1, Dexterity 8, Con --, Int --, Wis 1, Cha 1. It uses your base attack bonus to touch, grab, or attack, but it does not threaten an area and deals no damage with its attacks. It is fully under your control and can manipulate objects like a tentacle. You can use the glorytongue to deliver touch spells. You can cause it grow (up to 100 feet long) or shrink (to its normal size) as a free action. It does not interfere with spellcasting or speaking. It can be used to make grapple checks, although its weak Strength makes it difficult to actually grapple a creature. It can wind its way up ropes, walls, and other vertical surfaces, and it is strong enough to suspend up to 10 feet of itself free of any supporting surface (to cross a pit, for example).

The end of the tongue is a primitive sensory organ and can see up to 5 feet away with normal vision. (It does not have blindsight, darkvision, or low-light vision). You perceive everything the tongue perceives. Because it is an extension of your tongue, you can use it to taste things, although poisons and harmful effects do not transmit to you through the glorytongue.

If destroyed, all but the original length of tongue that existed before the glorytongue power was used collapses into dust.

You did, in fact, miss one.

Depending on if this hair is as dexterous as a third arm, this would also be an alternative, one-level dip instead of two levels of alchemist Alchemist for getting another hand to reload with when dual wielding pistols. Unfortunately this also turns you into Bayonetta.

You forgot the gun feet.

I have no idea how to model those in pathfinder.
