Correct Answer: Option A

Explanation:
'Hair' can be used as an uncountable noun: 'She has long hair.' But 'a long hair' could mean one strand. However, if she has long hair generally, no article. So 'She has long hair' is correct; 'a long hair' is incorrect if meaning general hair. So error at 'a'.
