What are you, alien, to ask that question? No, we don't have hair on our tongues.

No the tongue does not have 'hairs' on it. Anything that may resemble 'hairs' are just 'papillae.' There are three types of papillae: filiform (thread-shape), fungiform (mushroom-shape), and circumvallate (ringed-circle). The circumvallate are the largest of the papillae and the only ones to contain taste buds (they are almost the only ones {for the most part} that you feel when you touch your tongue. Hope all that helps!
