What is the name of the doll in the Japanese shrine that has real hair that grows..?

Question:


I was talking to one of my friends about Japan and then he suddenly said that there is a weird doll in some japanese shrine that has real hair that can grow? Has anyone else heard of it? How does it look and what does it do? lf I go to Japan am I allowed to just go to the shrine and see it myself or is it like sacred?

Answer:


I think your friend was talking about a doll in "淡嶋神社 Awashima Jinja"
