R. Yehudah says: Since the Torah prescribes tefillin for the hand and for the head, then just as the hand is susceptible to tumah of one kind (a white hair), so, the head must be susceptible to tumah of one kind (a yellow hair), (as opposed to the area between the eyes, which is susceptible to tumah of two kinds of hair).
