Interestingly, we have a piece of lace in the Met's collection which is 
supposedly made of human hair. It has been catalogued as something , maybe point 
"tresse".  I have only seen the catalogue card, not the piece. It is a piece of 
needlelace. I think it is entirely white, although I recall seeing a piece of 
needlelace made of hair with a variety of colors in it in some book.
