To hate it when another woman picks a hair off my clothing

It gets me annoyed when I am chatting away to a colleague at work about a work issue and they lean into my space a pick a hair off my cardigan or clothing. I feel like it's intrusive and they just disrupt the conversation. Not everyone does this. It's literally two people I work with. AIBU?

Can you not check yourself in the loo mirror? It's weird to have hair on your cardi so frequently that colleagues are picking it off. Unless you are talking about cat/dog hair getting everywhere? In which case maybe spend some time yourself picking it off and then leave the cardi at work so it stays hair free?

I have actually never seen loose hair on any colleague in the last 2 years. I've picked a couple off myself though!

Oh, I absolutely hate this sort of thing.

Firstly, it's weirdly intrusive and cringy. Secondly, it's just rudely drawing attention to a flaw, and therefore always feels a bit embarrassing/humiliating to me as well as overly intimate.

"You would really want someone wiping your nose for you?"

Errr no. That is definitely one of the things I'd want to be told about, not have done for me. Obviously, I thought, but there you go.
