The following is the context in which I found the word "noodle":
The pawnbroker, a small, round man with olive skin and dark hair noodled over a bare cranium, looked at Bosch incredulously, his dark bushy eyebrows knitted together.

It's a comb-over! It means he had tried to take hair from the side of his head over the top to cover up his bald head .... but the author and no doubt everyone else saw a poor attempt at covering (looking more like thin noodles than a thick mat of hair!)

Hair noodled over his brain (cranium) Just means hanging.

In this context it evidently means lying randomly, like noodles in a dish.

"Noodle" also means brain, as a noun, or "to think" as a verb.

Think of how noodles look just slapped on a plate: stringy and going in all directions
