tefilla - Touching one's hair while putting on Tfillin


I remember to have read (in the Shulchan Aruch I believe) that after doing the Netilat Yadayim one can't touch one's hair, because that would make you impure again. But when I put on and accommodate my Tefilin, I inevitably touch my hair. This seems paradoxical, but maybe I got some facts wrong. Can one touch his hair between Netilah and Tefillin?
