Because unless the pouch covers her entire head or reaches up to where her head meets her neck at least, there is still hair long enough to get tangled in branches. I'm sure Superman could pull out of such entanglements easily, but it couldn't be good for the trees.

Just adding my two cents. In both Supergirl and the imaginary stories involving a superpowered Lois (aka Krypton Girl, "The Superwoman of Metropolis" and "Lois Lane's Super Dream" mostly) both have her wearing wigs so it's not completely far-fetched that she (Claire/female Clark) would wear one. I do know that the Rule 63 cosplay of Superman just pulls her hair back a little in both versions and wears glasses as Clarissa Kent (Clark) but makes the Superwoman hair a little more poofy on top (source: Kit Quinn\'s Tumblr .)

CLARK: No. I'm just worried I'm a jinx.
JONATHAN: A jinx?
CLARK: Yeah. Let's face it, ever since she's known me, Lois's been kidnapped, frozen, pushed off buildings, almost stabbed, poisoned, buried alive and who knows what else, and it's all because of me.

Source info on a Superpowered Lois Sorry to get off on a tangent, but, I KNOW KIT!!!!  I follow & chat with her on Tumblr. Her cosplay's are fantastic!!!! Every. Single. One. Of. Them. Great cosplayer, and talented individual, at that. Kind-hearted & lovely lady to speak with, too.

Another thing I've been thinking about is Claire's Superwoman disguise. A wig might not work so well, as it would easily come off if she flies too fast. However, what if she wears her hair really long, like down to her knees, usually open or partially open? As Superwoman, she could wear her hair as a braid, most of which could be hidden in a pouch in the cape. The methods Supergirl uses in my latest Supergirl story might be of interest. It's my feeling that there are very few people so unique that they don't have some doubles, and one way to make people discount the resemblance is to lamplight it - e.g. someone who says "Do you think this hairstyle makes me look like Superwoman?" is probably not Superwoman, however much she looks like her.

I have to say that story is really good, and more than living up to any expectations.
