I'm not precisely sure of your question, Manu. These are correct:

There is a hair in my soup. 'Hair' is countable and singular.
The poor man only has three hairs left on his head. 'Hair' is countable and plural.
He has very little hair left after his radiotherapy. 'Hair' is uncountable.

'An' is not used in any case.

You can say 'some hair'. 'Little' cannot be confused with 'short' here by a native speaker.
