I mess with my hair when I am thinking about something that perplexes me, or has to be worked out. My husband jokes with me that when my hair is all crazy, it must have been a REALLY hard problem to solve.
That is me too...Has nothing to do with flirting...
I apologized to her today. She was not being flirtatious she said, Just a lot of crap on her mind. I told her that she had every right to write me up or take whatever action. I don't expect anyone to believe this, but she stuck her finger in my face and said, "For the future, keep your remarks to yourself!"

Good job.
You don't have to tread lightly. Just keep it professional.

Next time ask her about her favorite sexual position or her cup size. I'm sure she'd really appreciate it!
BTW, you nearly dug yourself a bigger hole with the "had every right to write me up" comment. You should have apologized by saying "it probably came out wrong and I'm sorry if you were offended" and left it at that.
Just because you've studied something doesn't make you an expert. I would say that you were out of line if you don't have a super friendly relationship with your boss. Think twice before being verbally incontinent in the future. You could wind up in HR explaining yourself to someone with no sense of humor.
If you have to ask if something you said at work was "out of line"....
It probably was.
