This is just an idea but you can try the following:

1- Detect the face

2- Expand ROI by a certain factor (play with it a bit)

3- Detect hair on a color based approach.

@HareshChhelana if you use images of bald men, the count will be 0. Works every single time. – Benito Bertoli Oct 11 '16 at 15:39
