I've got a cat that likes to try to shred the end of my braid. Occasionally I encourage this, because her swinging at it is ridiculously cute, but I can't have that when I'm trying to sleep. I go the sleep bonnet route, usually with hair loose inside. Stops the attacks nicely.
Take the time to bun your hair well so that it's comfortable, even if it means shutting them in a closet for a couple minutes so they don't get into anything new. If it's not comfortable, you'll take it down, and that'll cause more kitten damage anyway.
They'll mostly grow out of it, eventually. Mostly...
ETA: Oh, Cat Dancer toys usually go over really well. So do the various devices that look like a fishing pole and lure (if you're actively playing with them). Just the thing for active sproingy kittens!
