Consider Don't Touch My Hair! by Sharee Miller. Recommended by 2 sources.
“This brisk picture book reads like a sing-song read-aloud: short, colorful spreads and a repeated refrain make it easy for preschoolers to join in. Its useful part is a clear, child-sized lesson about asking permission and respecting personal space, presented with light humor and diverse visuals. The main limitation is its simplicity—adults expecting historical context, nuanced discussion about cultural meaning of hair, or activities will find it thin. No hands-on exercises; it's best as a conversational prompt during storytime.”
