What is the actual process that is used to get the cotton or wool into such fine particles? Is there a method someone could do at home to either make their own fibers?
If not, would there be an ideal way to manually dye existing white cotton fibers to match my exact hair color? The fibers are so tiny, I assume a powder would be ideal, but what would be suitable for use on the scalp?

If you want to dye cotton fibers, there are many patents that can guide you through this process. Nevertheless, due to the different conformation (and the presence of melanins in human hair), I don't think you could be able to get the exact same shade as your hair.
So is there no way to take raw cotton and pulverize it after it's dyed, but in a home setting?
Someone on a chemistry forum suggested using Liquid Nitrogen on the cotton and shattering it, which seems sort of reasonable, but I'm not a chemist or science type really, so I'm betting there's a better way.
