hair flip
When I’m around people I like, I’m constantly doing this same motion to my hair because I want to look okay. I’ve seen videos where I’m doing this, and I’ve realized that it does absolutely nothing for my hair, but I still feel the need to comb my fingers through it. Constantly.

Certainly not alone… Not only do I do it ALL the time, but i’ve taken to notice other people who do it as well.
Trichotillomania: Look it up.
Trichotillomania is known as the HAIR PULLING disorder, it has no connection to what this lady is talking about. She is merely flipping her hair, not pulling it out.
I would have to say that this “neurosis” is not a neurosis at all. Women in general, when they are around a person they like/admire (in the romantic sense) they tend to “play” with their hair, for example: hair flipping, hair twirling, putting the hair behind their ears, etc.
It is completely normal.
