2 follicle nodes

now you can delete the highlighted nodes that you see in the screengrab above. The curve nodes under the follicles can be deleted since we’re not using actual hair, just the nodes that the tool created. Using the Create hair menu is just a quick and easy way to make follicles on the surface. Alternatively, you could create the nodes by hand (createnode follicle) and then you would have to hook up the surface shape and transforms yourself.
