In this situation where someone is speaking about another person's hair, "on point" means attractive or stylish. It's informal American English.

On point, means, like good point, you are making a good point, or pointing out the problem or solution exactly. So if someone makes a comment and then the other person says on point, it means like excellent point or idea. Not sure about the hair example you provided, I would need more context to explain that one.
