Life's little mysteries (2)

Why is it that the hair on your head - however long - when it dangles down your back or brushes across your shoulder - doesn't tickle, but as soon as one itty-bitty hair gets detached from your head, and goes down your back or across your shoulder - it itches like hell?????

What is the evolutionary advantage of this?

I'm not sure it is evolution, but maybe it gives us something to do with our hands now that our knuckles are dragging on the ground (apart from a couple of guys I went out with in my late teens).
