it's not about hair pulling being painful, even if that is a bonus. a grip on their head means you can guide them where you want. you talk as if you have spent time in the subject, but that's a pretty crucial part....

you're also suggesting exclusive 1v1 combat, which the depicted characters not only get into

Yes, that's why I said that it's "more of an issue in hand-to-hand combat."

In armed combat you won't be able to close that distance without great risk; it's not worth it, which is why we see so many long-haired warriors throughout the history of armed combat.

Also, melees work against theoretical hair puller as well as the pullee: you've got a grip on their head, but they've still got two hands free, and you're down a hand to defend yourself against their friends.
