Male tiel suddenly obsessed with plucking *my* hair

My little doofus (affectionate) is about 14 months old and over the last week or so has developed an absolute madness for plucking my hair. He'll land on my arms or perch on my leg while I'm sitting down and almost immediately go for an arm or leg hair. I keep my head shaved to stubble and he'll even try to pull the 1/8" hairs out of my head. Oddly he ignores my beard, and thankfully hasn't (yet) gone for an eyebrow or eyelash.

He's got plenty of other toys around and I keep something within arms reach at all times to try to distract him with but it's like he's discovered his new favourite thing in the universe and try as I might I can't seem to dissuade him. I wouldn't mind if it didn't hurt. Any suggestions for curbing this?
