Illustrator background issue

Question

I have downloaded a vector of a doll figure and I want to replace her hair accessory with a different one. However, when I remove the current hair accessory, the shape of the accessory seems to have been cut out from her hair (so when i remove the green berry leaves, it reveals the purple background instead of brown hair). How do I revert the hair to how it was before it had the shape cut out of it?

Move the anchor posints to where you need them to be.https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/editing-paths.html

It appears the original creator did not overlay objects, instead dividing them into separate objects, making it like a jigsaw puzzle. So, there's nothing to "revert to" as the damage is done. If you go to Outline mode, you will see this. Your only recourse is to redraw/fix the shape of the hair to fix the cut out area.
