Probably the "hair" thing is listed as a separate, non-usable plant in the game's internal data so when the hair is used, the game counts as losing a plant.

I highly doubt that's the case. As a programmer, I don't see any reason whatsoever to code it this way. Even if they did, it would be very easy to add an override to make this as an exception.

This was deliberate.
