in the hair
Ponha esse veneno no cabelo, para fingir que é branco.
Put this poison in your hair to pretend it's white.
— Malcolm X (1992)
E eu acho que ela fez luzes no cabelo.
And I think she got highlights in her hair.
A fita azul no cabelo dela chamava atenção de longe.
The blue ribbon in her hair caught the eye from afar.
Devia boicotar o barbeiro que te fez isso no cabelo!
You should boycott the barber who did that to your hair!
— Faça a Coisa Certa (1989)
She wore ribbons in her hair.
— O Senhor dos Anéis: O Retorno do Rei (2003)
Ele passou a mão no cabelo dela.
He ran his hand through her hair.
