Hi, have you tried selecting all faces & recalculate outside. It might be a flipped normal issue or it could be a uv_0 issue where some of the uv are on an empty texture.

Hi. This happens because you flipped the mesh in object mode. You should never transform the mesh in object mode. Other problems, unrelated to this one: - in weight paint mode select the neck bone. See how it is affecting the mesh? it should not be here at all, long hair is rarely affected by it; - select uv_0. Those big triangular uvs are on the braid. They will be visible. Also, the uvs are outside of the uvs space and in the hat area; - hair is vertex painted with multiple colors, not just 007F00. It is best to transfer vertex paint as well
Do this:
- clone similar in shape maxis hair, export the blend, append it in the scene with your hair; - delete hat chops, from your hair and appended ones; - rename the appended mesh to Reference, remove doubles on it;
- transfer uv_1, weights, vertex paint from the reference to your hair;
- select the reference, switch to edit mode, select everything with A, Delete - Faces. It is an empty meshgroup now;
- exactly in this order: select your hair, shift-select that empty meshgroup, join with ctrl J;
- duplicate your hair twice, change cuts
This screenshot is from blender 3.6 but this modifier works the same in 2.7x - Unhide the reference. It must be visible ( eye icon ) and selectable ( cursor icon );
- In Modifiers tab add Data transfer modifier;
- Choose Reference as Source object;
- Enable Vertex data and expand it;
- Enable Vertex groups;
- In Mapping choose Nearest face interpolated;
- Enable and expand Face corner data;
- Enable Colors;
- Shift-click to enable UVs as well;
- In Mapping choose Nearest face interpolated;
- Expand Colors, choose color0 in both Layer selection and layer mapping;
- Expand UVs, choose uv_1 in Layer selection and Layer mapping;
- Apply the modifier.
